Uh huh. Ask me how I know you've never used a Linux distribution before. We could easily have an honest debate about operating systems if you didn't decide to be so dishonest about the actual process. Ubuntu itself has less steps during the installation process than Windows 10 does. From there, Software Center, Steam. Click install. Done. Drivers are already installed and don't need to be 'configured.'

I use both Windows and Linux for a long time, and I tried Steam on both platforms in last two years. On Windows, game installation worked perfectly every single time. On Linux, I firstly needed to instal Xorg (because Steam couldn’t start under wayland). After that I spend whole day configuring drivers (I switched from Noveau to proprietary and then back) because I couldn’t get full performance from my card. As time went by, and I tried more and more games, I regularly needed to apply some ad hoc fixes (if you open protondb you will see that most of games sometimes need manual adjustments). I must say that some games worked perfectly under Linux, but I still can’t recommend Linux to my friends gamers who never seen console in their life (and tbh, even I gave up on Linux gaming, and I just use Windows now). Also I don’t use Ubuntu. I would probably have nicer gaming experience if I did, but for some other reason I don’t want to use it.
