You should try playing games on Linux with proton. It's gotten so good in the past 3 years that I have not wanted to play games on Windows since COVID.
I have only seen games not work on Linux when it required a rootkit and I don't care to have that installed outside of a sandbox anyway.
If there is still a place for windows, it's for games that require root kits and for the handful of specialized software that won't run on Linux.
Even when a company forces me to use a windows laptop, I just install arch in wsl2 and do all my work there.
I guess I have my steam deck, that kinda counts!
I need it for my engineering apps unfortunately.. but even then, I run windows in kvm lol
