Recent testing revealed that Arch Linux, Pop!_OS, and even Nobara Linux, which is maintained by a single developer, all outstripped Windows for the performance crown on Windows-native games. The testing was run at the high-end of quality settings, and Valve's Proton was used to run Windows games on Linux.

      Wow you're *incredibly* smart.

      I certainly am smarter than the people who base their conclusion of an OS performance being better than another OS’ on a test made on a single hardware setup.

      It’s also very funny that when people say they have a hard time making games run on Linux and they mention that they have an Nvidia GPU the first reaction is “Oh yeah, that’s why” and then they’re told to try whatever voodoo magic is in season at the moment to make it run properly but you’re here saying “Oh no, there’s no problem in game!” Yeah, because the problem is actually loading the game inthe first place so there can’t be any issues IN it if you can’t get in!

          I don’t know why you’re not upset that they present it as a fact when they only tested on one machine with AMD hardware to come to a general conclusion as if it applied to all hardware.

          You don’t need to defend some random OS.

            I don’t see the issue with testing it using fixed hardware, they made that clear in the article.

            I’m not defending some random OS, the facts presented speak for themselves. Stop projecting.
