I’m one. As a Mac user, I haven’t used windows in years, and avoid it like the plague. But, the limited games support meant I had to rely on consoles to get my gaming fix. With Steam’s strong support for Linux, I decided to build a gaming PC for Linux only. It’s been great. I just wish more publishers would support it — the ones adding kernel-level anti-cheat are ruining things, but I’m hoping if enough people switch to Linux, they won’t be able to ignore us.
I’m really lucky that I avoid anything that has anticheat. Not because I’m a cheater but because all the slur-screaming 12 year olds and my own fear of getting addicted to MMOs if I ever gave them a try have mostly dissuaded me from anything with online multiplayer.
Which means most of my games are Linux-compatible and I have no gaming group I’m giving up by making the jump :D
