    That is until you want to switch and use mostly linux, but you have friends who want to play one of those few games that only works on windows

      The second windows isnt the only option for “all games without any effort”, it will be dead.

          I’ve been on Steam+Proton for more than 3 years now. So many many games are now supported. It is usually the DRM kernel anti-cheats that are Windoxez only tend to be the broken ones. I dont buy or care about games that run anti-cheat in Windoze kernel.

          I recently moved from proton to a W11 KVM with my 4080 passed through.

          Unfortunately those hostile GAAS probably would be able to detect and block you (I don’t play those games)
