I have been a dual booting user since 2008. I tried to get rid of the dual boot around 2010-2012 but gaming just didn’t work well at the time.

To this day I only ever use windows for gaming. Wonder if it’s time to try gaming on Linux again.

I ended up getting separate hardware, one box for Windows (gaming only), another for everything is Linux. Gaming box is a desktop with latest CPU, proper GPU and everything, my personal is a 5 year old Thinkpad (mostly docked and connected to multiple monitors, good kb and mouse) under Mint Cinnamon that feels snappier than the Windows one.

Edit: I started playing with Linux 8 years ago and about a year later moved all my stuff to Linux Fedora and later Mint and never looked back. No regrets so far.

I'm in a similar boat. I still dual boot "just in case" for a lot of things, gaming among them, but I'm really looking forward to the day that I can just cut it and go purely Linux.
