man, this might be thing that finally makes me switch to Linux. what an incredibly stupid, shitty, and greedy decision.

Windows 10 not allowing you to postpone updates when it launched pissed me off enough to switch to linux for around 4 years. I came back for games, but the GPU market (and age) has pushed me back to consoles or just not gaming.

Check again Linux gaming, Proton/Wine is surprisingly viable now and the vast majority of games run without any issue.

And if you want to know, if a game works, check protondb.com . It's for proton, so steam, and includes a steam deck section. And many games, that don't have a native linux version, come with great tips on how to make them run, if a game does not run with proton out of the box. Most just need a different proton version, which is three clicks to change in steam.
