    Gaming is the main reason I own a pc. I understand it’s possible on Linux, but is it as easy as on Windows? Not to mention, that I pirate most of my games.

    I am contemplating switching to Linux, but I am too afraid, that I will run into something I didn’t realize windows is necessary for.

      There are some games that don’t work or don’t work as well. Some anti-cheat systems don’t work but the website protondb.com will tell you how compatible specific games are. For some people that’s a deal breaker and that’s ok, hopefully as adoption increases the situation will get better. I was disappointed to find out that vermintide 2 doesn’t work for example.

      I have no idea on the pirating side.
