I actually used Mint for about a year a decade ago, and really liked it then. What made me switch back was the gaming. That said, I hear gaming on Linux has just gotten better and better; just like people in this thread are saying. Whenever I get around to putting together a new PC I'll probably either dump something Linux on this one or dual boot myself. Sadly I don't expect Activision to really support it. But hey, Lord knows I've been wrong before. (And yeah, printers are often kinda universally assholes though; that we all know.)
Warzone player here, I actually had to switch back to windows after like 3 years on mint because of this sadly.
Admittedly, I don't play any games with anti-cheat, but my linux gaming experience over the past two years or so has been outstanding. I don't believe I have encountered a single game that I have wanted to play, but could not. And 99.9% of them work without any tweaking required.
