the Proton compatibility makes almost all games work on linux. for work, if you're into programming, it is going to be a much better experience with linux. if you're doing something else, you'll find most windows software works on linux, or you'll find free alternative that work about as good.

Visual Studio and a modern terminal emulator (Conemu), are an excellent pairing.
