From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The audio stack for Windows and Linux are very different. As far as I'm aware it's not possible. Anecdotally I've found that these applications are pretty useless anyways, if you play any modern competitive shooter it will have its own HRTF audio processing engine that works better anyways. I know CS2 and Valorant do. It's not possible to get more accurate audio unless you know the actual position of the enemies which these programs do not.
Other than that good headphones with good imaging really helps. I.e. not typical gaming headphones.
