"I would like to switch to Linux, but it's just not good for gaming"

(The "Windows" slices of the pies are entirely made up by Baldur's Gate 3, which also runs well over Linux)
I kind of dig Linux Os, I find Linux users insufferable.
As a fellow Linux user I entirely agree. I stay off the forums as much as possible. My latest crime was uploading a tutorial on how to update the bios on certain laptop models. Got fucking roasted, even on lemmy.
For some reason Linux forums are like stack exchange; an extremely toxic neckbeard pissing match.
Oh shit, that sounds extremely helpful, why did they roast you?
I've been using Linux since Ubuntu 8.10 iirc, and I'm still a fucking moron at dealing with Linux so I'm always thankful for people like you.
I might have been very lucky. I've barely seen anything negative than when people post factually incorrect or potentially dangerous/bricking stuff.
Though, I do keep a healthy distance from the Ubuntu and Arch forums.
Eh, you'll get the worse of any userbase if you go to a community specifically for that OS. Go to PC Master race or whatever to see the opposite problem.
I've been on Linux exclusively for something like 15 years, but I almost never bring it up. In fact, I don't even mention my distro of choice unless it's directly relevant, and if asked I recommend something different (I recommend Mint Debian edition because I've heard it's very user friendly).
I also find many people in communities like this insufferable as well, so I spend my time trying to tone them down a bit with comments like "Linux isn't for everyone, but it'll always be there if you decide to give it another try." I use Linux because it works better for me than Windows, yet many here make it a religion or something. It's kinda weird.
