        I don’t disagree.
        For the first time, I am actually dual booting with Mint and using it. Honestly, it wouldn’t be a thing without Proton. Props to Valve!

        You should see Linux users when you tell them that the problems they have with Windows haven’t been a thing since XP

            The ads you only see with a fresh install, which you can click away in less than a minute and never encounter them again in your life?

            The ads you can completely circumvent by installing the N version of the Windows OS of your choice?

            No, those are no problems what so ever.

              Love how you had to list all the exceptions and workarounds first in your reply, and then state there’s no problems.

              Denial is a powerful drug.

              I mean, if you want to continue having to deal with things like this, then more power to you.

              What ads? I do not see any ads on my windows 10

              You haven’t been keeping up with the news. They’ve already been prototyping and testing them.

              Also, from this article

              Windows 10 will reach end of support on October 14, 2025.

        You guys are just very annoying. We all know linux exists but I kinda like being able to play all games I want without needing to check if my OS can handle it lmao

          While the ProtonDB website exists, I’ve never had to check it, every game I purchased through Steam or GoG (Bottles) just ran. /shrug

          That’s an old trope you’re wielding around like a club.

          Also, as far as the annoying part, it’s not about a competition and we want to win, it’s that we’re trying to pull you out of the water and into the lifeboat, but you keep insisting on drowning in the ocean.
