    I’m in the same boat, but all the Win11 drama finally forced me to transition over. Now all my work specific applications run in a Windows 10 VM. I leave it running in the backround. I used one of the debloat PowerShell scripts, killed most of the background bullshit. All my windows apps are on it, it’s the best of both worlds. It doesn’t affect the performance of my machine at all.

      I tried to game on Linux. It works great in 99% of cases. I loved cyberpunk just as much as on windows. I’m just part of that 1% who need face tracking and some other software.

      I do run opensuse on my laptop however. Such uses it is perfect for.

        What do you mean by face tracking? Never heard of that. What applications use it? Genuinely curious.

          Mostly simulators. Tracks your face by various means, webcam, IR, etc. When your head moves your camera moves.

              I think I heard of them being used in Arma/Milsims so you can turn your head slightly left or right, so your character looks to their left and right on monitor.

                Thats pretty interesting! Sounds like a niche enough thing that would need specific attention to get working.
