I always imagine linux as a little hidden door to a speakeasy, but turns out to be narnia.

Already dual booting. Haven't used Linux since 2010 so it's been a bit of a learning curve. But now I haven't booted into windows for about 2 months now and it's been great for gaming.
Oh the times a-coming, but as I only really use my PC for gaming now, Iβm holding out for a SteamOS distro.
Valve is working on it.
Same here. The minute I can be confident than my steam collection will run on Linux, I'm switching over.
I haven't had any issues with any of my games.
For anything not on steam, there's bottles or lutris, both of which work amazingly well.
There was a comment thread in one of the Linux communities a while back talking about this mindset. Obviously the comments got a bit rude and unconstructive, but the point is that you can switch to something like bazzite now and most things will work pretty well, but if you're holding out until it's perfect then you'll be waiting forever!
The only game I have not been able to get running via steam/proton has been pubg.

I hate how relatable this is.
Big thing holding me up is domain auth. Someone had decent luck getting something like Bazzite joined to a DC without major manual work?
Not bazzite specifically, but I have joined Linux systems to LDAP with the SSSD module which is...alright to enable and config in AD
I have joined MacOS to AD as well and THAT was like pulling teeth LMAO
Can confirm Bazzite is just fine with domain auth, no special intervention required.
Authing against a Synology NAS domain which is presumably running Samba under the hood.
Sweet, will have to take a further look at that. Had set it up to check the state of Nix games and it seems to be pretty decent (last I really looked was when StarCraft was still a big thing). Didn't see anything in the settings about ldap/ad auth in my messing about though.
Itβs just the usual sssd setup, and even without manual futzing with config files.
I've tried before, that sounds horrible, why are you doing that to yourself.
I've worked at not small companies who still thought that was too much work to mess with.
Largely because half the services I host are tied to a Univention DC, and so are the current Windows client machines, I'd like to maintain that state.
I know Ubuntu has an AD option when you set it up, but it doesn't seem to work with any of the 'AD compatible' replacements I've tried.

Upvote for Khaby π
I'm buying a Windows 11 license.
And a new PC, or are you lucky enough to have sufficiently recent hardware that will support it, unlike thousands of others with otherwise perfectly good hardware?
I hope you enjoy your experience with it!
Thanking the heavens my distro doesn't have a mascot to embarrass me with (yet)
