I use Arch Linux with dwm as my daily driver as a software engineer. Sure there is some initial pain setting it up but it’s been rock solid and super fast, never have any problems with it and I love how customised it is to my needs. I only use Windows to play games, while they may work okay with Linux this is certainly not the case with dwm.

Funny, even ironic, that the thread now starts with someone saying "I use Arch". Good meme food.

Thank you. I seriously didn’t know the meme and had a good read during my lunch break

Games on Linux are still hit or miss in my experience. With very simple setups (keyboard, mouse, one GPU) it can work okay-ish, but something "exotic" like gamepads, or multi-GPU setups still cause way too many problems.

Windows is a very fine game console, in comparison.
