After 8 years of using Linux, I finally went back to windows. Installed W11 Enterprise, also switched back to stock Android. Everything works well, I spend absolutely no time fixing bugs and fighting weird issues. I don't care about muh privacy, I just play video games and watch anime.

it's really bad, even though linux community keeps gaslighting you that it "just works". a couple of games i tried in the last few months:
-biomutant: weird graphical glitches, there is an issue about it on proton's github but there are no replies after 4 years.
-far cry 3 - won't launch, protondb reports kept bringing up 5 different "solutions", none of those worked
-quantum break - linux shits itself during the tv show part of the game, i got black screen (but audio and subtitles worked for some reason)
-darksiders - cutscenes are broken, no fix
-saints row gat out of hell - completely broken
it's just too annoying. a lot of games either straight up won't work, have issues, graphical glitches (that nobody reports because linux users don't seem to care), or you have to switch to a different proton version 5 times just to hit the one that works. oh, and don't forget to put this specific launch option or you get crackling audio. it just works, bro!

I just have Linux because I develop software for myself on it. Windows is probably a better operating system, and if you are using Linux for that long, you are probably geeky enough to find a way to nuke the bullshit out of Windows.

Right now I have Linux with a Windows VM when required. I might return to the inverse at some point. Everything is made for Windows.

Everything other than gaming with invasive anti-cheats. Non-slop gaming works 100%.

I keep Windows install just for the odd game that doesn't work on Linux.
