My wife uses windows and sometimes I dual boot it to play games with her.
She laughs at how rapidly I transform into a raging boomer but I forgive her for she does not know.
Linux has problems but windows is just fucked up. The moment you want to do anything outside the lines it becomes an utter horror show. no univeral interface (I’m stupid, you can tell by my posts, so I just learn CLI and do everything that way), no nice consistent model like “everything is a file”, no scripting language everything respects. It’s insane and baffling.
I know Microsoft has brilliant people working for them so windows is inexplicable
the least infuriating way I’ve found to use windows is in a gaming VM with a dedicated GPU where if windows decides it needs to update, reboot, or crash my actual work in Linux won’t be impacted
increasingly, running games and apps in straight Proton is a better option in general though. both options give me slightly better performance than raw windows, cause the gaming VM has very good compatibility due to it mimicking reference hardware, and Proton implements the windows API on top of a higher performance kernel with none of the shit parts of windows slowing it down
