Hi folks!

I was using PopOS regularly a few years ago, and it was working great. Good performance, and I was actually noticing a lot of my gaming was running smoother too. I ended up going back to Windows because I could not play VALORANT, Destiny, or HUNT: Showdown on the platform. While I don't play VALORANT anymore, I don't think that the other games have support on Linux either.

The other reason was Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop, and DaVinci Resolve. I need to do some video editing, and general live streaming too, and I never really dabbled with that on Linux.

I guess my question is for those who game / content create - has Linux been viable for you? Or do you often find yourself dual booting anyway to get the latest updates, driver support, anti-cheat support, plugins etc.
