Mint has treated me just fine since I converted.
I'm not proficient with Linux whatsoever, but Mint has literally been the most newbie user-friendly OS I have tried to date. So Windows can suck it.
For gaming, Steam runs things great. And for other things like GOG, Battle.net, Lutris has server me well. Proton does a good job.
It's now Sunday and the number only "jumped" with 1000 players from release to now.
I honestly thought it would be more. But it looks like it isn't gonna cross the 20.000 mark.
