I dualboot both.
Windows for games with anti-cheat.
Linux for everything else. EndeavourOS is my darling.

Simple compatibility and useability. It works with nothing and handles like I'm trying to have a debate over single channel walkie talkies. Does your audio interface work? Probably not. How about your keyboard software? Nope, not that either. Well surely it supports the most common GPUs for AI, gaming, and content development? No, it's not officially supported. So when the only way you can use Linux without complications is just barebones equipment to edit flat text files or browse the internet in a web browser, you just ask yourself why bother when windows doesn't force me to the terminal when I want to solve a simple problem.
My main problem is that I have "legacy" games that don't work on Linux as well as Linux ports and native Linux builds being worse than their Linux counterpart.
#limuxgaming has come a long way and I'm curious and excited to see where it goes, but ease of use simply doesn't have parity. I want one click installs with identical performance.
The bigger issue with the #linuxdesktop in general is that no distro actually thinks about it as a product. 1/2
I rode in waves. Last time I switched back to Windows was just to play one game. As far as my life goes normally I'd do everything else in Linux so I dual boot. But I have 2 windows laptops for work and there's no getting around that.
