And nothing has replaced it.

That's what I was saying, it's all shaky right now. Wilds runs about as well on both, but it's noticeably less stuttery for me under Linux. Other stuff, particularly when leaning hard into Nvidia features, is either performing poorly or has features disabled on Linux. Plus the compatibility issues.

There is just no one-size-fits-all solution on PCs thede days, even before you start considering the weirdness of running the same games in ridiculous 1000W powerhouses and 15W handhelds at the same time.

PC gaming has become a LOT less plug-and-play this last decade, and I don't know that it'll go back to where it was any time soon.
