Bit beside the point but Windows 11 is the first version since Windows 3.1 that I haven't used.

Nuked my Windows 10 install and put Pop OS on it + a MacBook separately.

I've dual booted since the 90's and have run Microsoft OS's somewhere since the 80's.

I had Windows 11 (kept it around for gaming), I binned it a few weeks ago.

Don't game enough to justify it any more (haven't even tried gaming on linux yet).

Juice was no longer worth the squeeze.

Gaming on Linux is quite good these days, as long as you don't need any kernel-level anticheat for multiplayer.

Proton is an impressive piece of software.

Bazzite baybeeeee

I don't game much, but as a parent, we have both a ps5 and a xbox. Frankly, console graphics are good enough for me. I don't see much point in having a gaming PC.

Actually, I would trade visuals for better games. Most games nowadays are better enjoyed as movies than games.
