I really do hope to see more and more people migrate away from Windows to Linux. I truly despise Microsoft these days. But it's not easy for everyone, or even possible in all cases, and for multiple reasons. (And, real talk, a lot of home users won't care enough to bother).
This gentleman in the video link I'm pasting explains 3 reasons why he's stuck with Windows. Some of these apply to me as well. And there are other reasons I'm still stuck, too. At least for now. So it's frustrating when I see some of the knee jerk "just migrate, bro!" comments because 1. I agree with them and 2. some of us can't. Not yet, anyway.

Yep and that's fair, but it's still really critical that those of us that can migrate do so. It's a chicken and egg problem. Developers won't feel pressured to support Linux if there's no sizable user base, but the user base won't grow until developers provide support for Linux. He even mentions that in that video. There's a reason I'm only this year planning on switching my primary desktop from Windows to Linux and it's because of how good Proton has gotten. I've already checked every game in my Steam library and while it's not 100% of the library that runs, everything that doesn't is something I don't care about.
