Microsoft knows it's a dead end. It's time to put Pop OS or some other "user friendly" distro on your machines.

Yup. Windows runs great in a VM for the one or two apps with no Linux equivalent. Windows is just an application runtime.

Agree. I wish I could game on Linux. DX12 has really cemented the Windows monopoly. Embrace, extend, extinguish.

I have to use Windows to play. If the cloud gaming services supported Ultrawides, I may be off of it altogether.

Yeah, I never got into gaming on computers, so that’s not an issue for me. I have a Windows VM for DxO and some old scanner software.
