Bad timing though
Microsoft has driven me away from Windows at least a half dozen times over the last 20 years.
Each time the siren call of some game or another will pull me back.
I’d played with Linux native games as well, but most of the greats were Windows only.
And yeah, then Proton.
Now I’m trying to save up the small fortune needed for a computer upgrade, and I’m not even planning to pirate Windows.

It is, but my current setup is struggling.

I’m in the same boat. Been using Linux on a laptop for decades. But have always used Windows for gaming on my gaming desktop. I’m due for a rebuild and had a Linux build planned out that I was going to buy parts for during the holidays when they were expected to be on sale… Then RAM shot through the roof. A few months back the retail price of the parts (minus accessories and a case) was at a little above $1700 now it’s almost at $2100 due to the RAM pricing.

It is harsh. I’m hoping for the AI bubble to crash. For a lot of reasons, but partially so that I can buy parts at reasonable prices.
