Recently I moved to a Fedora distro called Nobara for my gaming rig. Microsoft has been working hard to force me out for years. When I have to make custom installers, and run scripts to control updates and telemetry, you're not being a very inviting OS.

I would switch os if roblox didn't decide to screw linux users with the byfron anti cheat

I've just been testing it out, but tried installing a couple of games through lutris and had no luck with it. Tinkering isn't an issue, but the system hung so bad when starting Arcanum I had to reboot to get back in. Even after killing wine, the game and gnome-shell I still couldn't interact with the gui at all.

That sucks for sure. I haven't really fiddled with Lutris much. I am using Heroic launcher to manage my GOG library and Steam for the rest. That's given me solid results. I am having more issues with using some modding stuff like Unity Mod Manager, it works but I didn't spend the time to figure out where to point it as some of the folder structure is different etc. I'm a real Linux noob...
