It is when those anticheats gatekeep the most popular PC games. For most gamers, they can't compromise on what they play and there is still a very large amount of potential games that would forbid a switch to another OS. See : https://areweanticheatyet.com/
Most of those are addiction machines and f2p shitholes, that they isolate themselves from the system is a win in my book.
