am I wrong in thinking it’s as [e:/s/easy/simple] as “encrypt your drives, keep two partitions, and boot into windows when you need to play something with a kernel anticheat” ? this is what I do today for League whenever i’m in the mood for an ARAM
e: and actually you don’t even need to encrypt your drives, that’s just going beyond if you’re concerned about what the kernel anticheat might try to do
yeah but that’s just a usability problem that a guided installer wizard could fix
e: and besides, if your solution to that issue is ‘i’d rather not play’ or ‘that’s really inconvenient’ or ‘whoa slow down buddy not everyone is a GRUB wizard’… then that’s not a compelling sell of ‘just switch over’, is it?
especially if all those windows dual booting experiences from over 10 years ago which is now misinformation wasn’t kept commented like every time someone brings up dual booting
It should be, but I’ve had too many issues with windows somehow updating and ruining my boot partion/grub.
If I want to run windows, I only run it on a VM with hardware passthrough or on a totally different machine since physically unseating my Linux M.2 from the motherboard is too much hassle and I don’t want to move it to a PCIe card.

For the vast majority of people, that isn’t easy at all.

It is simple but not convenient. I don’t want to dual boot. I’d rather not play the game at all if that is my only option.
