Windows 10 is by far the most-used version of Windows, and support ends soon.

    Recently decided to try Linux for gaming. It wasn’t without a hitch or two, but largely fine. A number of games I play don’t even need an emulation tool like Proton.

    The only reason windows was lying around was for gaming.

    Looks like it’ll only get used for flight simulation.

      X-plane natively supports Linux, works using proton too.

        I’d stoped flying x plane when MSFS came out. Will give it a whirl too.

        Barring Gamefreaks games, most of the popular racing games do not support Linux well. Forza 4/5, Asseto Corsa, iRacing, Crew.
