Protondb says that 99% of my games will run OK on Linux now, so when I build out a PC later this year, I think I'll finally make the leap to Linux on the desktop. I have to use Win 11 at work and I find it frustrating.
- zamadatix 2y agoA very high percentage of my game collection works on proton (and a decent amount natively even) but my problem is that last couple of percent tends to be big games with the most play time which don't work because of anti cheat instead of technical reasons :/.
- bradley13 2y agoGo for it. I'm sure it depends on the games that you play, but for me, everything "just works" under Steam and Linux. I'm mostly 4G or builder-games, with some RPG like Baldur's Gate. Work does use Microsoft stuff, and I do work from home a lot. However, everything is in the cloud now, which works just fine from Linux and Vivaldi or Firefox. tl;dr: When I put together my new machine about 1-1/2 years ago, there was no longer a Windows partition. Haven't missed it...
- obloid 2y agoI moved to Linux (Manjaro KDE) as my primary desktop OS about 3 years ago and it's been great. I'm a casual gamer and all of my Steam games run good on Linux. I run Windows 10 in a VM that I use occasionally for work stuff using MS Remote Desktop.
