I just set up VFIO. I remember it being a total pain in the ass a few years ago, so I was expecting to spend a whole week debugging and tweaking. But, it was surprisingly easy. In just a couple hours I've got a windows 11 VM with it's own dedicated GPU up and running. And the next question that popped into my mind, that I'm yet to solve, is, "What now? What did I just do it for?". All the games I wanted to play now work on wine/proton, some even went out of their way to not work in a VM specifically. Yes, there are a couple pieces of ~~shit~~ software that I need windows for, but I'd rather keep trying and testing open source alternatives, maybe even participate in their development to the best of my ability, rather than maintaining a VM just for them.
