Should I switch from Windows 11 to Linux Mint for gaming?

Absolutely, as long as the games don’t require kernel-level anti-cheats! You can check ProtonDB to see how well your games run. Most of the games I've tried on Linux work quite well, but some are just not playable yet.

You can install games from different platforms like Ubisoft and EA using tools like Heroic. I’ve had luck linking my other accounts there along with Steam. Just keep in mind that some titles might need specific configurations to play nicely.

Performance for gaming on Linux has improved a lot, but it's still not as seamless compared to Windows. Not all games run perfectly, even with tools like Proton. If gaming is crucial to you, consider dual-booting with Windows to keep the option open.

Whether it's worth switching really depends on your gaming habits. If you play a lot of Steam games, they often sync saves across devices, making it easier to switch. However, if gaming is a top priority, Windows 11 might still be your best bet due to compatibility. Linux has come a long way, but not every game runs perfectly, so test your favorites on ProtonDB before making the leap.

You can definitely play games from those platforms on Linux Mint! For Epic Games and others, consider using the Heroic Launcher, and for even more options, Lutris is your friend. Just a heads up though, some games with aggressive anti-cheat mechanisms might run into issues, so keep that in mind when you're selecting your titles.
