I have to give huge thank you to Valve for making gaming on Linux actually a valid option. I've been mainly a Linux user since 2006 but always had to have a dual-boot setup for gaming. Seeing the progress on Proton, I decided a year or two ago that Windows 10 was going to be the last one I'll have on my PC and since my SSD died a couple of months ago, I didn't even bother to preserve the Win10 installation anymore.
Funnily enough on my front page, the next link below this post was "Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start Menu". I think that pretty much sums it up why I don't want to even try to mess with the thing anymore. It's been a good run and Windows has improved A LOT since XP days but oh dear god all the data harvesting nowadays...
