I started my gaming experience (PC) with Linux. So I disagree.

Without knowing what you play, how many games would you say are as easy to install as under Windows and how many needed some additional encouragement?

Thanks for asking.

I am a very casual gamer, and at the beginning I might have struggled a bit with all the mechanics of Proton, Lutris etc etc.

When I look for games I usually double check on ProtonDB, if there is any fix to be applied. For this reason, I can say 95% of MY games are just install and play.

The only game I had a problem with was Skyrim, which needed a FPS limiter to avoid glitching at the beginning.

Right tool for the job. I was once a a nix fanboy in the beginning. Now, I don’t really care. If I legitimately think it suits a particular issue or use-case I’ll suggest it. But I also work for an MSP that, well, focuses on a lot of Microsoft services.

There are just things each environment has pros and cons for.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
