re: linux troubles

there's a date quickly approaching that I'm looking forward to: january 2020, when Microsoft ends extended support for Windows 7

There are millions of users out there clinging to 7 as the last great Microsoft OS before they devolved into mobile interfaces and ad-supported hell, and there's suddenly be a LOT of people looking to Linux as their new go to

so like, shortly before or shortly after there's going to be a lot of clamoring for new levels of support and compatibility and user-friendliness, and some really incredible things could happen, especially if Steam Proton has matured somewhat by that point

@ShugoWah Yeah if Steam Proton turns out even half as good as I hope, that's gonna make a strong case for me moving over to Mint or something like it, tbqh
