    This is the final hurdle keeping me on windows, a seamless gaming experience. If SteamOS can hammer everything out, there’s zero reason to stay.

      I would argue that at this point, today, its already a fairly seamless experience.

      The only singular issue is MMOs with invasive rootkit anticheats. All the MMO’s i’ve played have worked like a charm with zero issues, but thats because I actively avoid games that use invasive rootkit anticheat systems… and I did that on windows, too, so its never been a big issue for me.

      Might be an issue if you love your korean mmos though.

      and I’m not, like, a sysadmin with 2 decades of linux experience or anything. I’m just a random idiot.

      I dont say this to proselytize or try to get you to convert/install today. Just a vewpoint from general everyday user.

        Nope, I’m almost exclusively single player at this point. How’s the performance and everything? Is there any drop off?

      The only problem I have gaming on Linux these days is anti-cheat on a couple titles. Everything else is seamless already. The steam client works just as it does on Windows.
