I’ve been a Linux user since 1999. It was considerably worse back then because not having just the right hardware meant, for example, wasting hours just trying to get ppp to work (note to my past self…ISA hardware modem is the way to go).

Linux kernel and distros have come a very long way. People using it today take so much for granted, which is actually a very good thing. But it still has its quirks and it’s partly why I still, to this day, run Windows as well (and I use a Mac for work). While gaming in Linux has made enormous strides the past number of years since Valve ramped it up with Proton in Steam, it’s not perfect…not yet.

It all boils down to how much continued patience you have for it, and how useful Linux is to you compared to Windows, etc. There is nothing wrong with wiping and reinstalling Windows. There is nothing wrong with dual booting or keeping Linux as the sole OS.

Do what makes you happiest and gets the job done.
