Yeah, gaming is the main thing holding me back from kicking windows completely to the curb.

I bought a Steamdeck a few weeks ago and one of the reasons was to see how well games play on a linux system. So far everything is working fine so I think I might actually switch to full Linux for my next computer.

It's mostly competitive multiplayer games that struggle to play on linux. Games with anticheat, especially. If you play mostly single player games or casual multiplayer, then linux should work fine for you.

I stream some fps games with anticheat and they just don't work on linux. It's the one thing keeping my dual boot windows partition installed.
