@atomicpoet Yes. I started playing games on Linux in 2010, and for the games I've tried then, I did see performance gains. I wrote how-to guides on running certain games on Linux back then.

I especially love #WorldOfWarcraft #RunesOfMagic #GuildWars (and later #GuildWars2 in 2012) because I was able to challenge some gamers to give it a try (they're not Linux users at all). They can't believe those Windows-only games run much better on #Linux.

(Most of them now knows more about Linux than me. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ Successful conversion!)

There are actually a lot of #games that runs better on #Linux ( #PopOS in particular) than on #Windows _even if_ through #WINE.

Ones I tested: #GuildWars #GuildWars2 #WorldOfWarcraft #RunesOfMagic #StarTrekOnline #Neverwinter #AQ3D etc.
