Games and Photoshop. Linux is nice, but if you're a serious gamer its not even in the solution space.

This is so wrong. 99% of my 450 game library on Steam works perfectly. Great performance with proton.

Use gimp

Gaming is the only reason I dual-boot back to Windows. Out of curiosity, what's your distro and hardware config? I've had no luck with Proton or Lutris on Suse or Ubuntu. I don't think I've ever been able to play a game all the way through without issues. Not sure if it's my distro choices, Nvidia drivers, or the specific games I try to play. Even Steam Deck certified games do not work properly for me.

Gaming on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed without any problem so far. First with Nvidia, now with amd.

Seriously? My Nvidia drivers broke every time I got a kernel update on Tumbleweed. Eventually I pinned the kernel to an old version. Gah.

Maybe my PC is just haunted.
