Yeah gaming on Linux can be frustrating at times. Some games work perfectly out of the box, some don’t even start or lag a lot. Especially on Nvidia graphics things get complicated. I’m an AMD user and everything is mostly working fine, but a friend of mine uses Nvidia and he struggles more with driver issues and missing Wayland support.

If all I did was just office tasks and browsing the web, I’d completely switch to Linux as well. But as a gamer, things start to become complicated very soon. Some games run perfectly fine, some don’t run at all. It’s hit or miss. That’s why I keep Windows around and boot it almost daily. But the situation of gaming on linux is improving currently, so I’m hoping for a bright future…

I’ve already switched to Linux partially. My PC now dual boots to Manjaro and Windows. I won’t switch completely, but it’s great to have such an awesome alternative right there one click of a button away. And the funny thing is that I’m not even the only one amongst my friends to do that. We are now three already and we even game on Linux too.
