I saw there was a somewhat similar post to this, but I'm kind of celebrating the fact that this was the first year I was able to game exclusively on Linux! I'm very thankful for all of the effort from the people involved in all of the aspects of Wine/Proton, it's great to not need to reboot to play games.

Same as you friend, in fact the Deck helped me to realise that the vast majority of my games play fine on Linux doing nothing but enabling Steam Play for all other titles in Settings. That's literally all I had to do.

I know it's definitely not the same experience for others but I'm glad I could make the 100% jump to Linux. Especially with Cosmic on the way for PopOS!

It certainly has been great! Hopefully it only gets better from here!
