The writing is on the wall--I suspect the next Windows OS will be a subscription service. Gather your ISOs while ye may.

For games, have you tried Lutris and Bottles? These tools make it an absolute breeze to setup the games outside of Steam.

I have had some good luck with Bottles.

I have not, the last time I made a real effort at moving to Nix for games was quite a while ago. The big factor is if I can get GOG working since that's the preferred platform here.

GOG is easy to setup through Bottles. :)
