With the work that Valve is doing on Wine, and Proton, it's really becoming easier and easier to justify the switch.

Having less personal time and rising electricity costs has made the Deck my primary gaming machine lol.

I don't support games with DRM, so pretty much everything I play works flawlessly on it (as well as "unsupported" titles via Proton GE)

Tried getting PCVR working with the Quest 2, unfortunately support is still a hot mess and leaves the system with a super janky flood of audio devices, in addition to legendary stutters that make it unplayable. Win11 still better for VR.

Only pita setback is things like fortnite and other multi-player games insisting on only using anticheat software that isn't Linux compatible.

I'm okay with this. I don't support those publishers anyways. People should stop supporting them altogether.
