I hate Windows. I hate Microslop. I've hated them forever. Not using Windows helps, but I still have to deal with the consequences of everyone else using it!
What I hate most is people absolutely terrified of a *nix terminal, while willing to work around Windows problems via command prompt or messing with the goddamn fucking registry, which is just bloody ridiculous, why not just use fucking config files... but that's a rant for another time - and people looking at this kind of chatbot interface like cutting edge modern technology when it's actually just a CLI that doesn't fucking work. We had these at the dawn of personal computing, except that those ones worked and gave the same response to the same command every time! Look, I don't like using a terminal either, but at least be honest and consistent about it, people.
I switched to Linux mint last year and haven't had much problems when gaming. Every game I've tried is compatible with proton or wine, the only complication I've had is modding Fallout 4 being a bit more complicated, but that works as well. I highly recommend switching, especially since Linux doesn't carry bloatware and spyware owned by Microsoft
