From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Youre entirely correct about proton unless your kid wants to play fortnite
Literally the only reason I haven't switched to a Linux distro. I hate anti cheats so much.
To date I have not found any degree of enjoyment in any games with a windows only anti-cheat.
I was going to say Siege, but they removed the ability to play as a team of exclusively shield recruits, I've heard.
Siege is honestly awful these days (not complaining about the sci-fi ops, reality is lame as shit why not spruce it up a bit) but what they have done to the UI and the queues (bring unranked back please) is honestly unforgivable and makes the game hard to play. (It isn’t all bad, but more bad than good)
I'm unlucky, I play Fortnite with my cousin in friends.
