There's currently somewhere around 68,000 games on Steam and so it's going to take a long time for Valve to check them all on Steam Deck but here's some recent picks.
I’m close. I was looking at SSDs the other day so that I can install Pop!_OS and dual boot. I used to be at least somewhat interested in the latest version of Windows but I have zero interest in 11.
I did it a few years ago. Haven’t looked back. Once you embrace and get used to using the workspaces and window tiling and you won’t be able to go back to Windows clunky window management.
The future is running Windows in a VM under Linux for the few Windows programs you need. No need to reboot into Windows except for very few exceptions.
This was totally my plan for when I inevitably switch to Linux as a daily driver.
It’s a solid plan if you just wanna play older PC games and don’t want to go through the hassle of trying to get them to install using a program like WINE.
I had the same idea, though I’m a bit apprehensive about it. I’m not that technical, so it’s kinda difficult for me. Do you have any resources you care to share?
I don’t have any. I’m technical enough that I’m confident I can figure it out. For me it’s more about finding the time and energy. There’s only one application that may give me trouble and that’s the cloud backup solution I use.
Watching this progress is what finally pushed me into choosing Linux as daily driver. The other factor is Microsoft is a bag of ass.

Pop is my choice as well. Seems like a solid starting point without feeling too close to Windows.

Yeah, and if you need to use Windows-only external hardware, just pass through a couple of USB ports. I thinks it’s the ultimate solution.
