Except for (raytraced) games, for your Logitech keyboard, your Razer headset, your Xbox Controller not connecting, your Windows-only Software that won't work.
It's terrible. You probably just found a way to live with it and get used to.
Ray tracing works on Linux just fine. I don't know what your talking about. I have software to control the lights on my Asus laptop keyboard if needed, my other keyboard is not addressable RGB anyway. I've seen Linux work with controllers too. Maybe not Xbox specifically, though I think there is a way to do that too.
Edit: Logitech keyboards have support: https://pwr-solaar.github.io/Solaar/
There are projects for supporting the Xbox controllers too: https://github.com/medusalix/xone
As I said in another post
I'm very well aware that all of these problems can be fixed. But you need to put extra work in. There is no benefit for doing that.
The benefit is you don't have to use windows. Obviously, it's not a trade off that's going to satisfy everybody.
