That's a fair point, but even if they got rid of this loophole, I'm sure there'd still be a registry or group policy loophole. I'd totally switch to Linux if it wasn't for my gaming library, my Nvidia card, and some of the software that I use that is either Windows only or works better on Windows, like the Affinity suite, Blender, UE5, etc. I know the latter two support Linux, but it goes back to the Nvidia card and they simply run better on Windows, at least from my experience. Proton also seems like a pain requiring Steam/Lutris to manage different versions of Proton/Wine, plus a good chunk of my gaming library isn't supported.
So instead of keeping a windows machine exclusively for your old catalog of games you likely rarely play and only buying new games which run under Linux, you're gonna keep upgrading through whatever nightmare path remains available just so your main PC can run those games?
Or is it that you're so concerned with experiencing specific games which will come out only for windows that you're willing to suffer that he'll?
Because really... Your comment makes you seem irrationally attached to windows only games....
I only have the one machine and I'm not buying another just to move to Linux. Maybe when it's time to upgrade, I'll go for an AMD GPU and move to a Linux distro.
Regardless, I mentioned other software besides video games and there's more besides what I listed. I've already gone through the process of making Windows less of a nightmare that it's not a problem for me right now. So no, I don't think it's irrational, regardless of video games, to go through the headache of dealing with Linux distros right now, which I've done plenty of in the past and is its own hell that I'd have to suffer.
