Remember kids, Recall can't come into your house if you don't explicitly install Windows.

It's like vampires with invitations, zombies with brain-salads, or werewolves if you show them your butt.

It W10 for gaming and Linux for everything else at this point.

Try Linux for gaming now. It's incredibly good. Most games run on par with Windows, with a few actually running better on Linux. There's only a handful of games that don't run on Linux, and that's games with DRM or anti-cheat that has chosen to not support it. I think I've even heard that Valorant, with its kernel level AC can (with some difficulty) run Linux, but I'd probably just say to avoid it if you don't mind.

My Steam Deck convinced me to try Linux (Debian) a try for desktop gaming. So long as you install the latest GPU drivers, it's smooth as butter. I guess what I'm saying is Linux for everything at this point... for those capable of installing drivers from the CLI.

I fought with Ubuntu for a weekend trying to get it to run my game library. I failed.

I will give it a swing again when steam stops W10 support.

Protondb is your friend. I haven't actually been there in months though as everything I've played recently has just worked without issue.
