Sometimes people just don't think about that people can have different wants and needs.

All, literally every game I want to play runs great in Linux, and my hobbies of self hosting, development, homelabbing, and data hoarding are all leagues better on it.

That doesn't make a good choice for my friend that only logs on to play destiny 2. It also doesn't matter why, to my friend, its a bad choice. It could be the devs are chained and lashed by Microsoft for even mentioning Linux in the office, but what matters to someonethatt only wants to play that game with friends is whether it works.

Steam has ~30 million users per day. Windows has over 1.5 billion installs.

Gamers really over value themselves.
