That stat about games doesn't track for me
Most Windows games i try run fine on linux
"Most".
Yeah, out of dozens and dozens of games I've ran, about 2 or 3 didn't work
And I'd almost bet these two to three titles run fine in Windows which is exactly the point: what is Linux's advantage here concerning gaming?
When I want to play a certain title I don't want something similar because that derivate runs on Linux. That's maybe okay for casual games like a round of Solitaire where the Linux alternatives are fine.
Windows 95 maybe... these games were old AF. Nothing made within the past 20 years has this issue.
The only games that don't run on Linux now, are games that don't run on Windows, either
The advantage? I genuinely have a much easier time setting up games on Linux
