but [Linux] still has some way to go before you could use it as a gaming OS
maybe a nitpick, but I think it’s more accurate to say it has some way to go before everyone could use it as a gaming OS. many many people can use it as is right now. All the games I play work great on Linux so far, I removed windows from my gaming PC months ago.
if you’re already into Linux and you don’t care about competitive games with anti cheat, then Linux is ready to be your gaming OS right now imo
