Comment on Valve: Windows 11 market share on Steam drops to 41.61%
Mesophar@lemm.ee 5 months agoIt’s sad because even my friends that are knowledgeable in using Linux, or even a few friends that daily driver Linux, aren’t committed to gaming on Linux and keep a Windows box around for gaming…
I made the switch to fully Linux when I built my new PC, recently, and I haven’t had any more issues than I had encountered on Windows in years past. Maybe a little more configuration, but I very rarely stuck to default configuration with Windows, either.
Linux gaming has come so far in the last several years that it barely even feels different from Windows

For me having a ton of issues with windows crashing right when the Steam Deck was announced basically gave me no other reasonable option than to go all in on Linux, it was a bumpy road at first (I had tried it a little, but didn’t really understand the system, and was a bit overconfident with some settings) but I was able to play basically everything I wanted to play without to much issue, and it’s only gotten easier sense
About a month ago I installed windows on an extra drive, becouse there are exactly 2 things that I can’t consistently get working to an acceptable level: VR, and a mod manager. Both have ways to get them to work, but with kind of glaring problems
And I gotta say, I did NOT miss windows, I can’t wait until mod managers are a solved problem on linux so I can just overwrite that drive and be done with it (VR too but that’s less of a concern lately)
