I like Linux a lot and do want to have it as my OS, but most of the games are either painfully slow or just instantly crash upon loading. No game has ran better on linux than on windows, so I'm stuck unfortunately.
When was the last time you tested this? My steam library runs great, not to mention everything else that runs on Lutris.
Nobara was the only distro that could even boot up all of my games without crashing. Some ran at a noticeably slower but playable rate while others ran at like 30 less FPS. Lowering the graphics to PS1 level hardly helped, and I just gave up trying to get my games to run like normal on Linux.
That's really unusual. My experience has been the opposite on Linux Mint, most games run the same or better than when I was on windows. I had a little bit of trouble getting world of warcraft to work at first, but I was mostly done playing that anyway. I guess it's all down to what games you play.
