Lol try to run the top 3 games and tell me.

I beat Elden ring and doom eternal on Linux. Not sure what "top 3" are in your eyes, or what time we are talking about. Oh, I also beat cyberpunk 2077 on Linux too.

There are alternatives, depending on which Adobe software you usually use. For photos and vector I use Affinity, which works well via Wine… and there’s no subscription, either.

As long as you don't have tons of peripherals, don't want to play Fortnite and don't need 200 pieces of software, and if you have enough knowledge, yes, it can be the solution. It's still difficult to do the swap for companies, or if you don't have any skills related to computers.
