2024 is the Year of Linux on the Desktop, at least for my boyfriend. He's running Windows 7 right now, so I'll be switching him to Ubuntu in a few days. Ubuntu was chosen because Proton is officially supported in Ubuntu.

The year of Linux was supposed to be somewhere in mid 1990-s...
The year of linux was 1991, since it was created there.
What are you smoking? Linux is better in literally every way.
Obviously because those developers are specifically making that impossible. That's not Linux's issue.
Also I've played CSGO and R6 siege on Linux before with no issues.
Also valorant, Fortnite, and Destiny 2 are shit and made by companies that are practically hostile to environments they don't have strict control with.
Why did you have trouble? Maybe because you suck. You don't need to distro hop. Most of us do that for fun.
The real fact of the matter here is that you're here to be a troll.
Actually it was around mid 2000's when it matured enough as a desktop environment to be used by a regular user. Since then it has been improving, and for the last decade or so I dare say it is even easier to use.
