Linux is good, the core OS has been great for a long long time (decades). It's just the desktop environment situation that has sucked, and, of course, gaming before proton.

If you want to play games Bazzite actually does work pretty well. I went back to Fedora though and I literally spent hours trying to fix issues with just the Steam flatpak (it was overwriting my controller mappings every open). If you're a gamer just stick with Bazzite.

I think I'm destined to for NixOS though, as my least favourite thing about linux is doing sudo fooctl enable bloopblorp and having no clear log/information about what exact state the system is in.
