The Duff CEO with a Windows-Logo on his forehead: "Gamers use Windows because of its' user experience not our de facto monopoly."

Edit: Yo, I'm not saying this is gonna happen. I just want to say that Windew's UX sucks ass.

Unfortunately the biggest issue now is the anticheats that only function on windows. My friends refuse to switch to Linux because you cannot play:

fortnite
league of legends
escape from tarkov
battlefield
apex legends
valorant
R6 siege
GTA 5
Rust
Destiny 2 Etc

They'll play other games but because they mainline one of these they refuse to leave. As long as SteamOS has no answer to these anti cheats windows will maintain a dominance.

Fuck kernel-level anticheat.

I refuse to buy or play any games with Kernel Anti-cheat.

And I will die on that hill.

If it doesn't run on Linux because of intrusive anti-cheats you probably shouldn't install it anyway.

And it's maddening that people will fight to open backdoors to Linux instead of fighting the companies from pulling that shit.
