If Linux didn't manage to somehow be worse than Windows then this would be a problem.
To use Linux is to jog on the highway.
No, you juat nees to pick the correct distro from lile 5 distros. This is as simple as beig able to predict what software you will be running or what will you be doing on what software.
You see, super simple.
Full disclosure, I'm linux user for about 7 years. Only this year I finally switched to only Linux when buying my new PC. And running Ubuntu cuz everyone makes stuff for it and fuck Arch
lmk when I can Baldur's Gate 3, Squad, Planetside 2, Warframe, Valheim, Photoshop, Solidworks, and use VR on Linux.
You can run Baldurs Gate 3 on Linux. Planetside 2 works, Warframe does too, Valheim has a native Linux build, Photoshop runs in Linux using Wine, there are projects showing how to get Solidworks running in Wine.
I don’t know what Squad is and as for VR, I see instructions for SteamVR but I don’t know if that runs well or not.
