Gaming is the only reason I still bother to install windows on desktop PCs.

The topic of market share, and ports and lack of them, are nuanced but I highly doubt Linux won't overtake macOS even more each year unless Apple wakes up. Valve and Linux community are a force to be reckon with. There are other individuals in the scene as well, who are chipping away at improving the gaming ecosystem, such as System76, Redhat and Canonical.

I switched to Windows for gaming this year. With advances in Wine/Proton it was super easy; there's nothing I play that isn't perfectly convertible to Linux anymore.

Even using an Nvidia card in my desktop seems fine.

It was supereasy! Barely an inconvenience!

The only thing holding me back is VR, I have a Quest 2 and the PC drivers are only for Windows.
