      VR and compatibility with my sim cockpit and racing rig. Those are basically the only games I care about now. I don’t feel the need to purchase any other game that’s windows only so once the sim hardware is compatible, all of my machines will be Linux.

      • VST / full plugin support Ableton or FL support (I’m sorry but they are just way easier to use and that’s kind of important for casual users)
      • AfterFX support or feasible alternative
      • better audio interface drivers
      • easier firewall like net limiter
      • generelly making some more things controllable in an interface rather than only the terminal

      I am not comfortable giving up my whole music production trajectory just because.

        I’ve never used anything from Adobe kit myself, but I’ve heard that Davinci Resolve is a good After Effects alternative

          Well when I tried it it sucked. It’s solid for replacing Premiere Pro but AfterFX has some different functions that davinci Resolve just doesn’t offer out of the box. I had a real bad day trying to build an audio reactor. I actually tried installing reactor for like 3 days and alternatively get familiar with the scripting API. I had to give up because it started to eat into my daily schedule.

      I can’t play CoD or Battlefield on Linux and those two are my main shooters.

      I’ll just stick to my usual “violently murdering any AI assistant they put in the OS” thing.

      I’ve convinced my SO but thats it. My other gamer friends aren’t computer savvy enough to do it and go through all the headaches.

      So they’ll keep dealing with ms shitty practices…

      You can continue getting updates for Window 10 for free and they don’t really add new software to Windows.

      Microsoft Office and lots of line of business apps (e.g. I prefer Tableau desktop over the web version) require Windows. Many game (not only multiplayer ones) continue to have issues with Linux (although there have been massive improvements in the last ~5 years).
