I’ve been dual booting Linux and windows for about two years now, but in those two years, I have never booted into windows, except by mistake.
This made me think about removing windows and just saving that wasted space for Linux. I only ever dual booted for the off chance the peer pressure to play anti cheat games was too great, but so far it hasn’t.
For the off chance where I want to play a game that doesn’t run well on Linux, is it a good idea to do that via VM instead of dual boot, or is it too much hassle? Will there be performance hit or any issues with those games?
It used to be worth it, but Linux can run so many more games now thanks to Proton and other improvements. Most of the games that won’t run on Linux now don’t run due to anticheat, and many anticheat programs don’t like VM/GPU passthru.
So basically I don’t consider it worth it anymore.
