Valve published the results of the March 2024 Steam Hardware & Software Survey, revealing the most popular CPUs, GPUs, and operating systems its customers use to play various games.
For me having a ton of issues with windows crashing right when the Steam Deck was announced basically gave me no other reasonable option than to go all in on Linux, it was a bumpy road at first (I had tried it a little, but didn’t really understand the system, and was a bit overconfident with some settings) but I was able to play basically everything I wanted to play without to much issue, and it’s only gotten easier sense
About a month ago I installed windows on an extra drive, becouse there are exactly 2 things that I can’t consistently get working to an acceptable level: VR, and a mod manager. Both have ways to get them to work, but with kind of glaring problems
And I gotta say, I did NOT miss windows, I can’t wait until mod managers are a solved problem on linux so I can just overwrite that drive and be done with it (VR too but that’s less of a concern lately)
