Gaming

Speaking for myself — no.

I had reasons for switching to using my dual boot desktop for Linux 95% of the time. Windows 11 became too annoying and bloated for me to want to deal with, and I found Proton could adequately run the games I play (including some old or foreign ones Windows struggles with).

I continue to use my Xbox because it's unladen with Windows' recent bullshit, and as a limited machine, it gives me less security concerns about trying games with connections to Russia, China, and Israel.

An Xbox running full Windows is one I would wecome existing but would never buy. I'd just be thankful all their games were PC compatible and use my Linux PC and streaming devices running Steam Link or Moonlight or even xCloud (until that service inevitably enshittifies).
