Don’t believe, check how countless others are doing it https://www.protondb.com I’m not sure where your experience comes from and that’s a shame it’s been a negative one (and I won’t dig into why, e.g how you did try and when), it just hasn’t been mine.
PS : I wouldn’t consider a game with 1000 mods a “normal” gaming experience. It sounds like it’s yours, and that’s perfectly fine, but I don’t believe this to be representative.
My use case is extreme as I stated before I think? I thought 4090 is enough indication of extreme tbh and that you wouldn’t want to run 3/4 supported Linux with a card like this.
I am definitely not an average gamer. There is nothing average about 4090 and VR. Not to mention elaborate expensive router setup for wireless VR.
Except that’s my point though, I even started with that… I do have a 4090 also and use it to play VR on Linux. That part IS a “normal” experience. It’s the 1000mods that isn’t. To clarify I mention BG3 and HLA only because it’s AAA. I also play indie VR games on Linux and they “just work”. One of them being built by a friend who was even positively shocked to learn that.
I brought ProtonDB up in the previous post, is that due to the SteamDeck running Linux (but on AMD, not NVIDIA) there has been a huge effort on Valve’s part to make the compatibility layer “just work” so the experience a gamer had with Linux just few years ago is not the same as today.
In YOUR case, my point is precisely that you please don’t discourage others who might want to use Linux to play, including in VR, including on high end hardware, to have outdated beliefs.
I don’t really subscribe to any belief system or ideology based software choice. I guess feel free to round the rough edges as you preach your favourite software. We are all a little biased on the best days
Not sure what to say… you’re the one who said “I wish I wasn’t a vr gamer sometimes so I could unsubscribe from this os permanently” then I should you its possible then you try to argue with me it’s not. It’s weird. Stopping now as I don’t think it’s productive for either of us, take care.

Another source beside ProtonDB https://www.tomshardware.com/software/linux/three-gaming-focused-linux-operating-systems-beat-windows-11-in-gaming-benchmarks even though I find benchmarks to be a bit artificial at least not my opinion against another.
I don’t know what’s your point honestly. Great if you have fun then that’s cool.
I just like to use the best tool for the job at hand and that happens to be windows in this case.
