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

Or at the very, very least, there'll be lots of new up-to-date media about making the switch and learning that new space smoothly

I feel really, REALLY conflicted about putting my trust in Steam for literally anything, but if anything can make running Windows games on Linux easier, it's Valve throwing shittons of money at the R&D, right

anyway yeah I'll take another look at mint in a year and a half I guess, haha

Or like... sooner, if Warframe becomes seamlessly supported in Steam Proton (and it's already very close)
