When WSL2 first came out, some losers on /g/ were cheering that it would "make Linux obsolete". Four years later, I think it's safe to say they were kinda missing the point. (vlemmy.net)

It's certainly progressed massively but I have to admit I still use Windows primarily for gaming. It's still a little faffy for my likes. I'm more excited by Vulkan - I think that and proton together is what will make Windows a choice rather than a necessity for gaming.

It can be a bit temperamental, I will admit. Mostly with newer games that have anti-cheat, and with VRchat where you have to use ProtonGE to get in-game video players to work. But gaming on Linux has truly advanced by staggering leaps and bounds since Proton began life. Those were dark days.
