I've been slowly radicalising people in my friend group to install it, if that counts

I've completed Linux at level 1 and tbh I think people are exaggerating when they talk about how complicated it is

This unassuming little game is fantastic, so clever and unexpected. Wow!

Any journalists/streamers want a key for the full game, HMU. Trying to think of people to contact, but having trouble / I'm shy.

Sorry if this is overly pushy, but: I have a cool shell script setup which makes it so you can just double click a windows exe file, and it automatically sandboxes it and runs it in proton. Worked great for playing random unreal games from itch with a 100% success rate for me! Lmk if you want a copy

ah, unreal wasn't useable on Linux then?

(I have noticed that there are a lot of people making the change right now who would never have dreamed of it a few years ago - the year of the Linux desktop, at last)

Ahh, sorry sos, there were like 4 people in my timeline today talking about Linux difficulties, I wasn't specifically subtweeting you!

I use Ubuntu with Gnome on my laptop and Arch Linux with KDE on my work computer, they're both basically the same at the end of the day

your mileage will not vary, you should just go ahead and make the switch, it'll be grand

just to provide a counterexample; I've been using linux full time for gamedev for over a year, and my experience has been:
- installation is pretty simple
- drivers, etc, everything worked out of the box
- all the software I cared about using works perfectly
- I never have to use Windows in a VM
