When it comes to gaming on Linux, many many many people’s understanding stil remains in the Jurassic era. For the past few years, I’ve been using Linux as my main operating system for both work and gaming. From my personal experience, the gaming experience on Linux is far superior to that of macOS and Windows. I know I know…whenever I mention this, there are always some old-school individuals who come out to say that Linux’s driver configuration is complex, its game support is not rich enough, and its compatibility issues are significant, among other problems. In this article, I will directly address these issues and let everyone understand how much the gaming experience on Linux has developed by 2025.

    Because I just plain don’t have the time right now. I’m busy with buying an apartment and getting all of that set up while also starting a new project at work. When I have time to relax I want to relax and not have to setup an entire new PC.

    I want to get the new pc after the moving is done as long as I have budget left, so it would come at the same time as when I would be interested in putting the effort in to setting up dual booting.

    I’ve tried using Linux in Virtualbox on windows and use that for anything but gaming but its just plain annoying working like that certainly with multiple monitors.

      Setting up dual boot takes like an hour. But yeah, there’s no rush to it, linux will still be there tomorrow. I don’t recommend buying a new pc and changing OS at the same time though. You don’t want to test your new hardware on a system you’re not familiar with.

        Its not “just” setting it up but getting all software I need, installing the games again, getting my whole spiel in the browser working correctly again, figuring out how to set up and use dual booting.

        The reason I want to do it on a new pc is cause I’ll still have my old one to use until I find the new one set up enough to replace it, so if I can’t figure it out in a day I can still have some relaxation time. I can sell the old one after.

          There’s always plenty of good reasons to postpone something and only one to do it now.
