We've been saying that about Windows and Linux for forever.

It might be slow but its happening. Linux just has 1 more barrier for me to switch: games with kernal anti cheats.

"Dual boot" - I'd have to switch so often its not funny, I value my time at least a little bit ok "Don't play those games" - I have friends, those friends want to play those games, I want to hang out with those friends because they're fun people

I just got a Steam deck for that. It's really worth it imo. Linux for my PC, steam deck for games.

I have a steam deck but dunno why I would use it at home just to not use windows. A steam deck IS linux and doesn't support kernal anti cheats and its a lot less powerful than my pc.

I do use it on the road, vacations, etc tho and its a great machine!
