I am planning to be a future steam deck owner. How do you guys pirate games on Linux? Or do you just dual boot to Windows? Or emulate Windows game using wine or something?

You do it the same way you pirate Windows games, then you just run them.

No need get window. You need somes tools though.

On desktop mode I download my games as torrent from dodirepack with the software transmission(from stock appshop). Once I have a game I use Lutris(from stock appshop) to execute the installer. Then I add the game to steam on desktop mode. And I rename the game to their steamid to be able to search for contrôler config. I then setup imagesin game mode for the games with the addon SteamGridDB installed from Decky (and addon loader for steamdeck)

If I have trouble running game I use protonGE which I installed with ProtonUp-QT (from stock appshop)
