Linux Mint is still going strong after being my daily driver for 4 months, and I don't think i will be going back anytime soon.

And yes I looked it up and it was the game's fault, elite dangerous odyssey can be fickle even when I had Windows 🤷♂️
I’m gonna get shit for it, but gaming on Linux really isn’t great imo.
My experience is that it’s a pain in the arse to get anything running, performance is worse, vsync is fucked, no HDR, doesn’t work with Hue Sync, and then a hundred other miscellaneous problems.
Proton is an incredible achievement from a technical standpoint, and if people are happy to put up with issues to protect their privacy then good on them, but I think people oversell how good the actual Linux gaming experience is.
P.S. I don’t need suggestions on how to fix the issues I listed. I’m more than able to resolve them if I had the time, I just don’t want to have those problems to start with.
It's absolutely far from perfect, but I'm happy because of how much better it's gotten compared to how it used to be. Like, similar to like how everytime I find myself complaining about emptying my shitty dishwasher I remind myself that not long ago I had to do them by hand.
