I can’t play like 5 games.

And are those games worth playing? From what I've seen it's mainly battle royale and sports games that have anti-cheat set up to deliberately break Linux compatibility

That really depends on the person, for me, it’s a deal breaker. If your game won’t work on Linux, I won’t play it.

Sadly, I don’t have this luxury with my work software. But I’m hopeful that things will change. I could probably make it work if there was just one app that worked on Linux.

Keep in mind that unless you are working in CAD, you're almost guaranteed to have a good alternative that works on Linux
