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.
For some reason people really hate Google. Some may have valid reasons, some may not, some may just dislike their results. Most just hate Google because it's the "cool" thing to do. Ignore the idiots and use what search engine you like.
If you hate google but still want to use it there are search engines that query google and scrape its data for you without google servers ever touching your connection. SearXNG instances are my favorite as they are open source, decentralized, has bangs like duckduckgo, is highly customizable, and self-hostable. paulgo.io is a good searxng instance for most queries, and if you really need google just put !!g in the query. Otherwise startpage.com scrapes google but they're starting to go hard on the ads.
If you're serious about the Internet you'll just ping icann and get the indexes directly, search the content, and use the results. You casuals might still use Google but I've built my own engine, and it literally only takes a few hours to get a search result.
Also, that person calls themselves royalty in training so if the issue is Google's hegemony then I feel like there might be some cognitive dissonance.
