Whatever you say, I've literally had people ask me "why do you play insert game here?" When I tell them why I haven't completely gotten off windows. It's happened multiple times. I'm not getting in my feelings, some of you guys are just insufferable.

I love Fedora on my old gaming laptop and arch/SteamOS kicks ass on deck, but I'm not giving up my main game that I play for socializing with my friends just because the FOSS community assigns themselves moral superiority for not being on Windows.
