I'm been a Linux power user for more than half of my life, 8 last years spent on NixOS. I self-host my everything. I've bootstrapped a toolchain and a Linux distro from scratch^Wtcc for giggles twice, first without a package manager, then without one. For the last five years, I earn a living by working on a Linux distro. I still have my only decent GPU in a Windows 10 box half a continent away I stream games from. Would you be able to convince me to switch?

Just face it, Windows is the gaming console firmware.

I once played XCOM 2 with a stylus. Ended up adding a 6DOF mouse for thether hand because bouncing around the map without it was atrocious.

Gamepads rule. There are one-handed ones as well.

well, it locks you out of SSH key logins, so on a well configured host it can sometimes increase security
