There's still room for improvement, but Linux gaming has come a long way in a short time.

I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.
It can run all the telemetry and jankyass untested updates, too
I would have know this when i said this on Lemmy + linux community. I would actually consider my phone running android/ios to be a greater threat to my privacy than my gaming pc
With a powershell tweaks you never have to worry about those broken updates.
I run grapheneOS for that reason, though that's besides the point. One thing being bad doesn't make another less bad. And you'd still have to worry about janky updates, you're just minimizing the risk, and mitigating the risk of bad updates by putting in a delay and only doing critical and security updates comes with a compromise to increasing vulnerability.
Bad OS is bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Just like Linux! But sadly Windows doesn't deliver 3rd party backdoors and viruses automatically yet.
..yeah, Windows prefers delivering 1st party backdoors and viruses.
Jokes aside, what are you referring to with that, where are you pulling your packages from not be vetted?

Thanks, that's actually valid!
I think one of the commenters there said it best:

And it looks like it's being handled decently by Canonical. I don't like Snap, but I gotta say they're doing a good job overall
