We're finally benchmarking GPU performance in Linux, first using the Bazzite OS following thousands of community requests specifically for this operating system.

95%+ of you would be leaving massive, massive performance on the table by using Linux

Pulling numbers out of thin air.

Also, I'm not seeing the "massive" here. But I'm not someone who sweats about framerates as long as they're stable and above 60fps. I have always been a mid-spec player.

Those Nvidia numbers aren't great, but in general, fuck Nvidia. They are getting better about their drivers, and the performance on Linux will continue to get better.

But me, I'm happy gaming on Linux, and so are lots of folks.

No, 95% is Nvidia market share.

20%+ difference is massive. 10% is massive to many pc players.

and so are lots of people

Just a drop in the ocean compared to the number of people who are happy gaming on windows, and these differences are making sure that Linux isn’t gaining any significant ground. Nvidia may as well be the only player in the GPU market, and with how poorly their gpus work on Linux, it’s a huge problem for Linux.

Yeah, you did pull it out of thin air.
