Do you guys recommend dual-booting a Linux distro on a secondary drive, or running Linux as a main OS, using Wine for Windows applications?
I’ve wanted to make the switch for a very long time, just worried about compatibility issues or even performance loss in gaming using Wine.
You can simply install Steam. There are many Linux native games and steam has a compatibility layer that makes it easy peasy to play almost anything. Wine isn’t necessary.
Technically, Proton (the compatibility layer) is using Wine, so you will still be using it.
