Incoming the switch to Linux tribe...
Sir, do you have a minute to talk about our lord and savior Linux?
No, no Its GNU/Linux Lol
That's a very conservative take
I'd just like to interject for a moment.
You haven't really lived until you've played UT2K4 on Hannah Montana linux.
For a reason.
I don't disagree.
For the first time, I am actually dual booting with Mint and using it. Honestly, it wouldn't be a thing without Proton. Props to Valve!

Windows users get so pissy when you tell them they're doing it wrong.
You should see Linux users when you tell them that the problems they have with Windows haven't been a thing since XP
How's that OS spying on you and showing you ads thing going? Is that not a problem anymore?
The ads you only see with a fresh install, which you can click away in less than a minute and never encounter them again in your life?
The ads you can completely circumvent by installing the N version of the Windows OS of your choice?
No, those are no problems what so ever.
Love how you had to list all the exceptions and workarounds first in your reply, and then state there's no problems.
Denial is a powerful drug.
I mean, if you want to continue having to deal with things like this, then more power to you.
You haven't been keeping up with the news. They've already been prototyping and testing them.
Also, from this article ...
Don't think that level of stubbornness will serve you well in life.
You guys are just very annoying. We all know linux exists but I kinda like being able to play all games I want without needing to check if my OS can handle it lmao
"I just want to avoid a problem I made up"
While the ProtonDB website exists, I've never had to check it, every game I purchased through Steam or GoG (Bottles) just ran. /shrug
That's an old trope you're wielding around like a club.
Also, as far as the annoying part, it's not about a competition and we want to win, it's that we're trying to pull you out of the water and into the lifeboat, but you keep insisting on drowning in the ocean.
