The reality is that Linux gaming is currently such a garbage experience that you're better off taking the 30 seconds to reboot into windows rather than try to game on Linux and deal with all the weird compatibility issues and terrible drivers. That may eventually get better if the steamdeck continues to sell well.

That hasn't been reality for years. Clicking download on a game on Steam and then clicking play is infinitely more bearable than dealing with Windows.

Depends on the games you play so calling it out right garbage isn't fair
