Interesting video showing almost no difference in performance between gaming distros and Windows 11 LTSC. What is your opinion on this?

My opinion is Microsoft better watch the fuck out, because Linux is coming for their asses in gaming. If Linux can break even 10% of the gaming market, it's going to get crazy momentum behind it.

My primary PC gaming method these days is a steam deck. I seriously check compatibility before I buy games now lol. My desktop has been collecting dust for months, but even then it's primary OS is Linux. I used to boot into windows for a couple games specifically due to issues I experienced with wine but things are so much better now I don't even know the last time I booted windows.

Pretty much the same, although I boot my Linux desktop, Linux laptop, and Steam Deck. My whole house besides my wife's PC is all Linux now.
