    At the risk of sounding like a meme… Arch on my desktop and laptop, Windows 11 on my home server/PC I play games with anti-Linux anticheat.

        No, until recently I had been using a VM with GPU passthrough for that, but my power supply is losing its efficiency and isn’t capable of keeping up with two video cards anymore, so for now, it’s retired.

        I have a 3rd desktop I’m gonna set up for gaming soon so I can replace the Windows 11 with some flavor of Linux better suited to what I’m doing with the server.

            There is. It involves running a script to detach the video card from the host and attaching it to the VM, then reattaching it to the host when the VM is shut down, but it’s more work than I care to do just to play a few games, especially when I have other machines I can just dedicate to the purpose and leave my desktop alone, ya know?

            I don’t wanna play Destiny that badly. 😂
