>what about gaming on Linux?!
Why are arguments like this still used when QEMU + KVM exist?

Rather use Hyper-V as my hypervisor, lot less dicking around and it's stupid proof to turn on in any windows OS.

Besides if I want to do shit with linux I'll login to my lab box or fire up a VM for it

what i find funny is i bought a computer specifically for gaming on linux, and it just collects dust. I have no reason for it.

No one uses those, basedteen unless people want to emulate Windows 98 with time period hardware. Linux gamers just use Wine and Proton.

I hate Windows with a burning passion and dream of using anything else but in the last 15 years it look like Linux desktop got worse, not better. Ubuntu 12 wasn't breaking straight out of the box.

>QEMU
I need an operating system that runs Solidworks and Autocad for work. Clip Studio Paint and Zbrush for my hobbies, and the Chinese Gachas for my gaming.

As far as I know there's just one, unfortunatelly.

>KVM
Literally just running Windows with extra steps

That means you're still using Windows. You have the overhead of running another full desktop operating system on top of the one you're already using.
