Yes, but can you play modern games on Linux the same as on Windows? Even with anti-cheat software?

FYI Helldivers 2 works fine on an ubuntu + AMD GPU, as well as Baldur's Gate 3. Haven't tested any other game yet.

Setup is trivial thanks to Steam and proton.

With some anti cheat - no. You cannot. LoL, Valorant, Apex Legends - all no go for me... But for everything else I play. No issues at all - infact a lot of games run better on Pop_os than they do on Windows.

Battlebit also works fine and it uses easy anti cheat
