If you’re thinking about trying Linux gaming again like I was - do it.

I tried Linux gaming on Ubuntu a couple years back. It worked but required some teaking, for example playing borderless-windowed mode always had app bar at the top unless you installed some GNOME extensions. Just a lot of little, annoying things that got me to run dual-boot.

This year I decided to try it again and it’s amazing 👏. Imagine being able to play Kingdom Come Deliverance II on the release day with 60fps 4k and not a single crash or any problems 60h in. I love this, there’s no going back for me.

PS. Final Fantasy XIV works even better on Ubuntu for me, because for some reason Windows never promoted the game to direct-flip, always pushing frames through dwm.
