(The "Windows" slices of the pies are entirely made up by Baldur's Gate 3, which also runs well over Linux)

I love Linux but it really does need more VR support.

And racing sims. I was talking to someone on Bluesky and they said the lack of racing sim gear support is holding them back.

That's the case for me, too.

Yup. I guess the gist of it is, Linux is great for just general gaming, but if you've got something specific, it's just not there yet. (I see a bit about VR too)

I just make do with running both. Of course would prefer to have everything on Linux, though.
