there are games for mac?!
Depending on what games you played, mac was a decent alternative for gaming. Blizzard treated mac as a first class platform for many years, indie games using multi platform engines often targeted it, and porting studios like aspyr would bring over a few big titles here and there.
Linux was in a similar boat before proton really opened things up, but with even less support than mac from game devs.
It’s not just Steam Deck. It’s also Proton, which managed to do what Lutris couldn’t: make Magic Arena consistently work in WINE on my Linux desktop.
Proton is the reason I don’t need any Windows machines anymore
I just need to suck it up and make the switch over already.
Would recommend, I actually enjoy interacting with my computer now rather than just tolerating Windows
I have it dual booting, just need to make the switch over to primary.
That’s easy, just change the boot order so it defaults to Linux. If it’s a pain to boot into Windows, you’ll use it less and naturally replace your usage with Linux.
Try it for a week or two, you probably won’t feel the need to go back. Make the switch today.
