It’s almost like the good ol’ days of install fests and the like! ‘End of 10’ is an organization that’s making it easy for Windows 10 users with computers that can’t upgrade to Windows 11, to install Linux instead of sending good hardware to the landfill.

Im hearing proton is good for games?

Proton is so good that even when a game has a native Linux version, I often opt for the Proton version (so my games are all in one place). I was even able to install mods for games like Baldur's Gate 3 (albeit with a bit of tinkering)

When I installed the Linux version of “7 days to die” the graphics were washed out and bad. I switched to the windows version with proton and it fixed the game.

Yeah, it's the consistency of it that's so impressive.
