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.

If only Linux wouldn’t Bork my whole install when I try to switch to 144hz on my monitor.

That’s a weird one. I’ve been running a 165hz primary monitor and a 144hz secondary for a while on AMD, Nvidia, and Intel GPUs. I’ve never had any trouble with them.

Were you using Wayland or X11?

never had any trouble either, with 240hz here
