Niche, huh? Linux dang near runs the world. Not being a primary gaming platform does not make it niche.

Oof, no. Some people are people. Have you met people? Do not recommend.

My experimentation with gaming using Steam had gone just fine, as well. But I hear it all the time, that Linux and gaming have issues. My response to them is pretty much that I don’t care. I don’t use Linux for gaming. Gaming isn’t my thing. To me, gamers and their needs are completely unimportant, as the pass time is just a waste.

That’s a very boomer like attitude. Learn or get left behind.

Not wanting to learn is just boring and lazy.

Thanks, you two… I needed that. :)

That’s a flaw with the people, not the OS.

Because learning is a good thing.

Pretty simple, really. Buy a console for gaming, or a separate machine for gaming. I don’t game, the joy of that died with the loss of lan parties and Tribes II.

Choose a system, make it your daily driver for work and home, and you will form the habits and muscle memory. Don’t and it will remain a struggle to some degree or another.

As long as your happy.

I take my coffee black, like my men. A line from the movie Airplane. My wife made me quit saying it, that servers today don’t know the movie, and so it’s just creepy instead of funny now. :(
