Linux won’t be viable for me until I can play all my games seamlessly.

Some people prioritize freedom and privacy over being able to play the latest mindless clone game of what came before with slightly better graphics, but for those that don't, Windows and needlessly invasive AAA games are indeed a good option.

Take this: if you wanna play on Linux with decent fps, you still need proprietary Nvidia drivers.

That's not true at all. AMD cards and drivers exist and are often competitive with Nvidia cards. Not to mention, the difference in FPS is often not as noticeable as you probably think.
Poor argument.

AMD might be "competitive" but it's objectively worse. Also some games don't even support AMD's equivalent of DLSS. Also AMD sucks at inference, not even close.

Nonsense. Their drivers are better and there cards have beaten Nvidia cards depending on the generation.

I don't think you really know what you're talking about here, and I don't think you would notice the things you think you would in practice. In short, you're making very poor excuses.
It's OK to say you're scared to make the leap and/or don't care about privacy so much as you do being able to play the latest crappy CoD installment.

I couldn't get Baldur's Gate 3 to run on Linux.

A quick search shows plenty of people running it fine since 2022. When was the last time you tried? Did you try it via Steam?
There's no shortage of games you can install through Steam on Linux. You need windows for GTA6 or the latest CoD or whatever, but saying Linux isn't viable at all is silly.
