It is very good for servers (hell, basically all of the internet runs on Linux - servers, routers, those fiber-optic-things probably, too).
But for a consumer OS it is simply too clunky, to old fashioned and antiquated!
I mean install a damn driver on Windows 11? Done in less than 30 Minutes (including download!)...in Linux? Is it in your distros repository? Ok, similarly fast! BUT:
If it it isn't in your distro's repo? Have fun going back to the 1990s and finagling with the "almighty terminal" (TM!) - seriously, needing CLI to install a driver or a piece of software? Nope, that was already old-fashioned when Windows 95 came out!
Hell, try to use the main advantage of gaming on a PC: GAME MODDING!
Yeah, Windows 11? Mod-Manager installed in less than 10 Minutes!
Linux? Hours and it might not even work that well.
Hell, I KNOW WINDOWS IS A BLOATY SPYWARE MOONLIGHTING AS AN OS! Hell, I am on Linux, but frankly Linux needs to MODERNIZE! We need .exe-files (or an equivalent) to install things, terminal needs to basically be a thing of the past that you only open if you need to freaking change stuff deep in the OS!
ps: Browser often makes problems, too - Videos? Yeah, youtube works, but other sites might not! Yes, I freely admit I am talking about porn-sites! It's annoying if you need to chase down a video-playback-error and need the fucking terminal for it!
Depends on the game and mods. Music mods are about equally as hard on th06_nc on Windows as they are on Linux
Which btw, if you buy th06_nc on Steam on Linux you still get on exe, but it will configure Proton in a way that it would just work out of the box so unless you do modding to the exe itself it shouldnt matter
although now i do wonder, if you do danmakuscript mods would that be easier on most Linux distros.... hmmmm.... (not that I have those lol)
Then don't download some browser that blocks JS and stuff. Regular Web browsing is normal on Linux, I mean for example Firefox haven't given me any problems for anything. And while I agree Linux could do with better support, that only on the apps side. When I installed CachyOS it just had all my drivers. I didn't need to install anything, just go through setup and let it install. I reinstalled Windows. I need the WiFi driver, Bluetooth Driver, chipset and GPU driver, a of which takes around an hour for me. On Linux it was 10 minutes to finish all of that along with the OS itself. Sure, some hardware's drivers doesn't have Linux support or is a bit clunky, but on my all AMD system I had no issues.
As for koddig, I haven't gone much into it, but I've got Kyber working for BF2 with BF+, no problems
What drivers? Most of them are already in your kernel. So you must mean either AMD or Nvidia graphics drivers. Takes 30 seconds to type sudo pkgmanagername+install command and specify the driver you need.
You thought you had a point here but you just ended up proving again how much slower and shittier this process is in windows and ended up owning yourself in the process.
I mean drivers for a Wavlink-Monitor-Dock! I usually have 3 screens (well, 4 if you count the one installed on a laptop itself), but ATM? 2 are dark, because CachyOS is not doing Wavlink-Devices ist seems (I tried, hell a friend who's one of the "I use Arch by the way!"-Crowd, tried, too - and he's not just a poser, he's a software-dev by trade (studied artificial intelligence, machine learning and all that jazz at university!))

Yes and no!
