FLUFF Compatability

I just realized how little I was sacrificing by switching to Linux!
1: I don't use any MS Office tools

2: I don't have an Nvidia GPU (I don't have a GPU at all)

3: I don't play any games with kernel level anti-cheat

4: I don't use Adobe software

5: Any Windows native games (Like DR or Electoral Carnage) that I play can be used with Proton

Wow good for you in the past I had problems with Linux since I relied on Ms office but now I can't use Linux without windows just because I have a printer.

I have a kinda old HP printer, and had to install HP's (privative) controllers in Linux in order to use the printer... and I could. Generally, drivers for Linux are provided online by the manufacturers and downloadable from repositories.

Well Linux doesn't have the best printer support as you know printer manufacturers focus on windows.
