Dual Boot? (lemmy.world)

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?

Regarding your bluetooth issues on your 8bitdo, I had an issue with my 8bitdo pro 2 where on linux there was a higher input delay vs Windows. I then updated the controller firmware and that fixed it. Works great on linux now.

Maybe try updating the controller's firmware, if you haven't yet anyway.

Regarding dual booting, I do dual boot, sometimes I like using windows, others i like using linux. It's nice to have the flexibility. Ideally i would like to switch to linux one day, but there are still a few small issues, at least on KDE wayland.
