Recent testing revealed that Arch Linux, Pop!_OS, and even Nobara Linux, which is maintained by a single developer, all outstripped Windows for the performance crown on Windows-native games. The testing was run at the high-end of quality settings, and Valve's Proton was used to run Windows games on Linux.

    I still can’t get anything to run consistently in Linux after 10 years, and many, many distros. Timber born and Raft currently never open, no matter what. I a huge Linux user but the gamin experience has always been so finicky for me and no matter how much I try it’s still unattainable. And even when they run its with a lot of configution and tinkering unless it has native support. I have no issue with that but I’m so frustrated my experience with this seems so diffent than what everyone else is having. I want to delete my windows partition and it still feels so far away.

      I’d be happy to help if you’d like I can play 90% or more of my library on Linux. Basically, if its in steam it’s a cake walk. I recommend something like Mint cinammon or pop_os all you need is proton really. I can’t run games with certain anti cheat like tarkov cause the anti cheat devs don’t support Linux

        Running mint right now, went back to basics after a stint with majaro. I appreciate the offer but for now the windows distro stays and every few months I will try again. I know so many people have such a seamless experience. That is what makes it way more frustrating.
