Speaking of the #gaming landscape on #Linux, I think performance-wise it's certainly been comparable between Linux and #Windows. I definitely have not noticed any difference between the two, not to say there isn't any. Compatibility wise, most games should work out of the box on #Steam, especially if the game does not use any anti cheat software that specifically prohibits from working on Linux. Pretty much all games I'm interested in playing don't have this issue.
The ONLY difference I notice between when I was still on Windows, and now that I've primarily and exclusively been using Linux for over a year for all things including gaming, is the streaming/recording experience while gaming. I've always used an #NVIDIA GPU since it's always offered not just the most performant but more importantly to me, the most efficient graphics card. One nice thing about NVIDIA cards is the NVENC encoder, which from what I've been keeping tabs on, #AMD's implementation/equivalent to it has still not matched/surpassed NVENC.
Back when NVENC 1.0 came out, my gaming experience (when I was still on Windows) changed entirely as it allowed me to game AND stream/record my gameplay on the same PC with barely any performance cost. When they upgraded to NVENC 2.0, that performance cost continues to go down drastically, and I have never gamed without recording or streaming my gameplay to my partner/friends via #Discord.
On Linux, for one, Discord does not yet natively support streaming an application with audio (which renders it pointless). I work around this by using a custom Discord client instead, Discord-screenaudio which is available as a #Flatpak. For recording purposes, I still use #OBS. So, the only difference so far in gaming on Windows and on Linux, is that on Linux, I absolutely cannot game while also recording or streaming on the same PC. It's fine if I delegate the recording/streaming to another PC via a capture card, but I don't do that as that'd be too costly. There's NVENC support too on OBS on Linux, but for whatever reason, while recording and gaming simultaneously on the same device on Windows gave me pretty much no performance hit, it butchers my performance significantly if I do the same on Linux.
I feel like this is one of the few things that could be improved, gaming-wise on Linux. If you're not a data hoarder and you live life dangerously without the need to document/record absolutely everything you do including gaming, you're fine gaming on either platform lol. On Linux, at least on NVIDIA GPU, you will certainly need a secondary PC to do your streaming/recording while you're gaming.
