I run to Ubuntu or Linux Mint on everything except my gaming PC. Every year or two I try out Linux for gaming and usually go back to windows. With steam deck out it seems like Linux gaming is the best it’s ever been. With that said I’m still a bit frustrated with freezing (halo mcc) and Bluetooth being super flakey on my 8bitdo controller. I guess I’m rambling, but curious if dual booting is the way to go? Have most of you axed windows all together?
I have axed Windows since they started to get really aggressive with their bullshit on Win11 and so far I don’t regret it at all. Admittedly I’m not that much of a multiplayer guy anymore, single play is working fine however. I’m on Garuda Linux and it’s super handy, because it comes with a lot of stuff already set up for you while still offering the benefits of Arch. Luckily, because this isn’t Windows, you can just remove what you don’t need. Depending on your choice of image, there isn’t too much to worry about tho.
I really want to try some older Windows games at some point. From what I’ve heard (and seen on Windows) they run better on emulators or Wine than Windows these days.
