Another great ploy by Microsoft to increase Linux adoption.
I just dual booted Linux Mint yesterday when I was reminded of the Win 10 end of service date, and hope to keep with it as my main system.
Linux has come a long way with compatibility since I last tried it ~10 years ago. The fact that Steam games ran perfectly without an evening of configuring settings blew my mind.
Do Ubisoft and Blizzard games run? I keep reading praises about Steam but I am more concerned with the other launchers
They usually do if they don't use kernel level anti cheat. But it's a bit more complicated than Steam. There are guides online. It's manageable but it's not "click play and you're done" like steam
