Steamdecks really has done wonders for linux gaming
Windows has also done wonders for Linux gaming.
And surprisingly Linus the YouTube guy lately. My cousin randomly messaged me a week or so ago asking how to install cachyos because he saw the YouTube videos Linus tech tips did, I almost teared up
I have a friend who was very anti Linux for years (even banned it from the office that me and network engineer were using) and he texted me the other day to say he’s happily gaming in cachyOS.
Said his final straw was the LG monitor thing but now I’m wondering if he still watches LTT.
