lol no
I never had a single issue so far. Actually, performamce is better on Linux every single time for me. I finally got rid of Windows since I have zero use for it. The only problem could be games with anti cheats.
I'm always surprised when I hear people claiming they work in IT and find Linux to be complicated. I just installed Fedora on two of my friends' machines. Both are cluless about computers and they are doing perfectly fine. Now for basic tasks including gaming, a granny could use it without much issues if any.
When was the last time you tried Linux? If it has been a while, you might be surprised how it has changed recently. Proton made everything so much easier.
I'm not a technical person by the way; just a normal dude who uses Linux now.
Dude, you need to chill. Why not take a break and unclench you jaw and fists for a while?
This conversation doesn't deserve this level of blood pressure.
