I’ve been dual booting Linux and windows for about two years now, but in those two years, I have never booted into windows, except by mistake.
This made me think about removing windows and just saving that wasted space for Linux. I only ever dual booted for the off chance the peer pressure to play anti cheat games was too great, but so far it hasn’t.
For the off chance where I want to play a game that doesn’t run well on Linux, is it a good idea to do that via VM instead of dual boot, or is it too much hassle? Will there be performance hit or any issues with those games?
@cyclohexane Anti-cheat will often detect and prevent/ban it, so the use case it fills is that ever-shrinking group of games that run on Windows, can’t run under Wine/Proton, and don’t have anti-cheat.
Not sure it’s worth doing at all.
So it looks like either commit to dual booting, or commit to never playing those games…
Maybe I’ll just commit to never playing them. I’ve never used windows in 2 years, so it’s a waste keeping it…
