How many of you use Linux machines? Send me some screenshots of your beautiful machine.

@Wetrix @ParmuTownley I've been big into PC gaming for the last 8 years and the past one has been spent exclusively on Linux. Out of my 120ish game library on Steam, more than a hundred work either almost flawlessly on Linux out of the box or just require a bit of tweaking. I truly recommend at least checking which games in your library do and do not work on protondb.com. I think you can even link an account and have them run through compatible and incompatible games in your entire library.

@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat @Wetrix yes I've tried proton! It works well but there are some games (especially rainbow six siegie) that don't work. I wouldn't want to change OSs when I switch from Witcher 3 to r6s.

Also my pc is potato so I can't really afford losing fps over OS call conversion.

@ParmuTownley @Wetrix Ah yeah any games with Easy Anti Cheat or any anticheat for that matter are really hit or miss and even if you can get them to work you risk getting banned. That's why a lot of people do GPU pass through to a Windows AME VM so you have the benefit of Windows compatibility AND the benefit of Linux and everything that comes with that. Certainly not for everyone though due to it being a beast in its own right to setup and requiring another GPU. Maybe look into just using AME?
