Linux master race
Just finally made the jump this week. Keeping the dual boot to finish my masters in a known stable environment with all the only-necessary-for-school-programs and then gleefully deleting it as part of my graduation celebration.
Same here! I've been dabbling with various linux distros a week here and a week there over the past decade. Now that I've finally given up on the few games that need kernel-level anticheats (like LoL and Battlefield), I'm staying permanently as all my other games work great. I probably wouldn't have jumped ship yet if steam (proton) wasn't where it's at now, though.
Since windows is on my smallest and slowest SSD I figured I'll just keep the dual-boot option indefinitely, mainly for helping friends and family troubleshoot windows-bullshit, or for the (now very) rare moments I need an app that doesn't exist or have an equivalent on linux.
That part was tough for me too. Same games! Well, it was tough but once they started this kernel-level stuff, I just cold-turkey dropped it. It's so shady.
I give EasyAntiCheat a narrow-glared cautious pass because it shuts itself off when the game is no longer played, at least.
Riot's garbage wanted to watch your machine at all times. Yeegh.
