      Just jump. I went Linux a month ago and never had to go back for gaming. I still have windows installed but I’ve used it only twice because music plugins are not compatible with Linux. Once I find a good guitar amp for my needs I can nuke windows entirely.

        Are the plugins VST by chance? If so, check out yabridge, you can install the plugins with wine and even supports 32-bit plugins

          Yeah, I’m trying to use neural DSP stuff along with guitar pro. Reaper works on Linux so the DAW is ok. I’ll take a look at yawbrige, thanks!

      Have you seen recent benchmarks? Windows games actually run faster on Linux at this point.

      The only exception is the small handful of titles with anti-cheat set to to anti-linux.
