More like anticheat is holding back the adoption of linux and linux adoption/recommendation will be easier if all the games works.

Any game that you dont enjoy is trash, got it.

But the people like my friend who is the majority here doesn't care if it is the dev or linux. They know they cant get a seamless experience if you switch from windows, which he will also preach to his friends. Most people want their stuff to work with minimal effort. People like me and you who care beyond that is a minority.

It is true, i mean if you are into popular online first person shooters on twitch linux is not the best choice. And it doesn't help when you come back say, those games are not worth playing.

You can check on the previous posts i made in this community. It always sucks when a friend wants to play a game with incompatible anticheat and you tell him about linux. This created a bad impression about linux for him. If you want linux gaming to grow anticheat compatibility should be a top priority. Windows is not all that bad if you remove/modify the annoying parts of windows and everything just works.

Every multiplayer game that doesn't work is because of anticheat. I wish valve actually pushed developers to fix their anticheat and make linux gaming better.

I run arr stack and jellyfin server on windows 11. Also use tailscale for remote access

More battery life means the cpu is power limited compared to windows + armoury crate performance mode?

I usually uninstall armory crate and other manufacturer bloat from gaming laptop while using windows and i use high performance power plan on windows. But armoury crate unclocks better high performance modes delivering more power to cpu. Since you have no armoury crate/msi centre on linux you will never know the performance you are leaving behind. Correct me if i am wrong.

I would have know this when i said this on Lemmy + linux community. I would actually consider my phone running android/ios to be a greater threat to my privacy than my gaming pc

With a powershell tweaks you never have to worry about those broken updates.

But as a person who uses both windows and linux, Windows is a super stable os if you do some powershell tweaks (for bloat, ads, updates) and you can also bring the best things from the linux world like package managers, stability etc.

Windows can run all games and i dont have to worry if a game is going to have proton problems.

I exactly do this. It switches every services to manual and turn off so many notification bloat. After doing this windows never bothers me. Every app , games, hardware like capture card just works on windows.

But i use linux on my laptop because linux is good for browsing and wordprocessing.
