Recent testing revealed that Arch Linux, Pop!_OS, and even Nobara Linux, which is maintained by a single developer, all outstripped Windows for the performance crown on Windows-native games. The testing was run at the high-end of quality settings, and Valve's Proton was used to run Windows games on Linux.
is the point of article not to stroke the ego of the Linux absolutists that have some weird chip on their shoulders when it comes to video games?
I literally wrote the fucking point in the message you responded to.
For gamers, Linux has become the better OS.
No it hasn’t, some games run better on the hardware tested when running Linux, some games don’t work at all on Linux whereas all games run on Windows.
Come back when they test multiple machines running various hardware and when they compare the experience setting up said machines to actually run the games.
You’re exactly the person this article was written for, someone who wants their opinion reinforced because they won’t take the time to analyze the data presented.
Ah, fuck me, it’s a Windows shill.
“All games run on Windows” well that’s bullshit. I already know for a fact if I want to boot up an old game I’ll need three different compatibility modes and a fucking guide or the entire OS will bluescreen. Steam has native support for Linux and they’d need to given their Steamdeck runs on it. Most if not all games on Steam run on it which was my major hangup for the last few years.
I run Windows 10. I know Windows 11 is dogshit and I don’t need this article to reinforce that knowledge. You seem to be confused on what an opinion is because 6% is 6%. You can whine about the data and it not being robust but the fact Linux is comparable within even a margin of error? Yeah get fucked, I have no interest in sticking with an OS that tried to put fucking advertisements in the file explorer and is unapologetically getting worse.
