i do already dual boot mint cinnamon edition on my computer, whenever i'm curious i'll try to run a certain application. and most of the time it'll work just fine.
i have problems with gaming, mostly. there was a time where fusion360 didn't work vecause it required edge for login, but i believe it's been patched.
i use a Trustmaster T300, a stream deck (which is "compatible"), and play some online games with anticheat. i get that there's a runtime for battleye and easy anti-cheat alteady, but it's (to my knowledge) impossible to play fortnite.
if i ever bought a laptop, i would install linux no problem. but my use case is in the very early stages of even being possible. believe me, i WANT to use linux. i just don't want to create too much work passing through usb devices to a VM or rebooting just to play beam.ng.
Yeah, I think you can't play online games with kernel-level anticheat on your PC.. I remember trying to get valorant to work before I realized that :\ I guess it was easier for me as i didn't use to play many multiplayer games other than valorant anyway.. So, I guess we just have to wait for developers to support Linux.
Might be a good opportunity to drop some toxic games at the same time
