    His honest reply about the state of Linux Gaming

    I’m betting it’s far from anything ‘honest.’ Stir up a little controversy (even if it’s as stupid as linux/windows fanbois arguing in the comments), get more clicks and rewards for ‘engagement’ from the algorithm.

    Maybe he is happy with linux as a system, but I bet this was thought over before it was posted.

      There’s always that element too, but he seems to be in a post growth stage in his YouTube presence. He hasn’t been as aggressive about growing…However, old habits are hard to banish, which means there is a chance this could be a calculated move designed to farm his audience and others for engagement in the algorithm. It could simply be born out of his own satisfaction with the Linux distro he’s currently using. Since he didn’t go into great detail, his motivation is up in the air. It seems to come from a genuine place, but that doesn’t mean the comment does originate from a genuine place. I suppose that I merely hope it stems from his honest opinion, only time will tell.
