Additionally, what changes are necessary for you to be able to use Linux full time?

That I was not able to play all my games on linux. I heard that it is now possible tough - with something called Proton.

Not all of them. Some of them don't work due to outright refusal from developers to support anti cheat on Linux.

What does anti-cheat mean in this context? Game developers don't want to code measures to prevent cheating on Linux so they don't support it at all?

Some don’t even need to. EasyAntiCheat and BattlEye both have support for Linux and it’s up to the devs to enable support (or upgrade to a version that supports Linux). But in some cases, the companies just refuse to support it (Bungie with Destiny 2 for example)
