Microsoft released the Windows 11 autumn update at the beginning of October. However, a bug has crept in. The installation creates an almost nine gigabyte cache file that cannot be deleted.
And the main issue there tends to be anti-cheat, and that’s a chicken-and-egg problem:
game devs won’t support Linux/macOS because players don’t use Linux/macOS
players won’t use Linux/macOS because game devs don’t support it
The more people we can convince to use Linux as a daily driver, the more game devs will notice and the more likely they are to support Linux. We’ve seen a lot of game devs make an effort since the Steam Deck became a thing, and it’s always getting better.
It’s totally fine to dual boot, but spending some amount of time gaming on Linux (where possible) helps send the message that Linux support is wanted and is profitable.
