There's been multiple times that I had an issue with a game launcher on windows bugging out and not being able to play my game, but then seeing it work just fine under linux with proton. There's still some issues the devs need to work out, but we're getting to the point that linux is more reliable
Honestly I do agree with Linux being more reliable overall. That being said, I do think the biggest benefit Linux has given me is reinforcing a habit of backing up all my stuff constantly, since I never know when I'm going to try something stupid on an impulse.
Haha, true! I've learned the hard way to try the really whacky shit in a virtual machine first, they're quite handy for that. After lots of trial and error though, and learning what will break things and what won't, I've been on the same install for several years now actually. But yes, back ups are still smart lol
