Everything I want to play runs on Linux and the couple that don't are because of EAC, which I can't be bothered with. I've completely cut Windows out of my life.
I'm in the honeymoon stage but I've left win 11 behind earlier this week. Jump full into it I am loving pop_os... the tiling feature is a refreshing thing I didn't know I needed. I'm hooked to it already. Flatpak is something else new for me that I'm really enjoying the thought of. Really like all the seamlessness of the virtual desktops too. Pop calls them workspaces. I can send windows to another workspace. Keep selectef ones on all workspaces. I'm a devops that has been using wsl for anything I needed Linux locally for since it came out. Now that I know how to interact with Linux and my remaining Windows infrastructure at work (primarily Ad) I am full into it. The only game I've spun up on it so far was cyberpunk 2077 and it runs great on it. Got Plex going, virtual machines, docker/podman, the foss possibilities are awesome. Really enjoying freetube right now too.
Ubisoft sucks. I'm still mad that they to this day refuse to add Linux compatibility to The Crew 2 despite BattlEye supporting Linux. It's basically the only game I have that I can't run on Linux due to an anti-cheat, and I really miss playing it since I like open-world racing games... Their launcher also doesn't run on Wine last time I tried, either. (I hope that at least changed since then?)
You know, here's the funny thing about Ghost Recon Wildlands.
Ubisoft and Riot really need to have a talk, because the Valorant anticheat fucks with the Ubisoft anticheat. In the end, I couldn't even run Wildlands on Windows until I uninstalled Valorant and its anticheat. It's too bad that such a fun co-op game is stuck behind some of the most obnoxious "protection" on the market.
Heck several games the do use EAC work now. Valve flexed some muscle and got compatibility with Proton pushed through.
