 I play FF online and WoW here and there when I have the time these days.  These and a number of games that really utilize a good graphics card run like poop under wine on linux.  It's not worth it to me.  On my gaming PC I will stick to Windows 11.  The gaming and graphics performance is just a very very noticeable difference to me. 

I do use linux for many many other things.  Which includes my VPS that runs my BBS, web server, mail server, etc.. etc.  The only gaming I find worth it on linux is a Steam supported game.  Then they tend to run fairly well on linux.
