My son bought a second-hand Windows 11 PC for games, and has been having BSOD issues with the graphics card since he got it. Out of desperation he tried installing Bazzite on it, which I encouraged, but was also trying not to get his hopes up, telling him that the some things might not work. But he reports that "absolutely everything works better than Windows".
I suggested he use KDE for the desktop, and he is blown away about how good everything looks, and how easy the user experience is. He has used Linux for a bit probably 7 or 8 years ago when he used a salvaged laptop at uni that had Ubuntu on it, and he remembers that being a bit janky and frustrating, but now he's decided that he'll wipe the Windows partition and stay with Linux.
So keep it up, clever people that are making Linux distros and software, you're winning.

@stib yes! Gaming on Linux is just ludicrously easy now. I don't even know why it took me so long to make the switch myself.
@meuwese it seems to be getting exponentially better. I don't do much gaming, but it's not that long since the choices were tuxcart or … well tuxcart really.

Not a fan of Warzone 2100, TTD or Battle for Wesnoth? heh, those were the days.
