All this progress is nice, no sarcasm. But I still get confused when my 2-3 year old experiences get written off as ignorance or bad faith, never mentioning the issues I had or how to deal with them as a user, and never explaining details I asked about.

If you know about gsync and/or fps tax on linux, I’d be glad to trust and try. Otherwise this comment looks like yet another marketing booklet that doesn’t address any of my doubts and creates no reason to find out, cause last few times I fell for, it was the waste of time.

Edit: I don’t want to downplay this tech, you or anything else. Currently I just want to play Witcher 3 with gsync and have no time for fixing the issues longer than 10 minutes under my expertise.

You asked about what I meant exactly, so I told you.

And for what it's worth, I'm not writing off your concerns as ignorant or bad faith, but aimed at OP's "That's what I'm hearing since 20 years". That comment is either ignorant or just trying to bash Linux from a point of prejudice.

I have no experience with the issues you raise so I'm unable to address them specifically.

It is still the case that if you have recent bad experience with Linux then Windows may still be the best option for you.

Ah, I lost the thread and misread that part of your comment, sorry!
