… and it’s much, much better than I anticipated. Proton has solved so many things. I’ve been dual booting on a smaller partition so far, but this has convinced me to wipe the whole disk and use it for Linux only. I might still keep a dual boot in case there is some edge case, but nothing so far has been an issue. I’ve been running Pop_Os! which I also have on my laptop since some year back. Previously I’ve also always had Arch on my laptop, but always stuck with Windows for my desktop just because of gaming issues.

Strongly agree! I switched as well, so did my wife and its glorious. We‘re both avid gamers and no issues so far. We have strong opinions about intrusive anti cheat software so that helped.

I did make a windows vm for my wife since she needs to work with adobe sometimes and it seems to work perfectly so far.

Feel free to update on your journey.
