My last experience with Linux was positive, but I eventually went back into Windows.
So many games are left unsupported by proton that is not a non-issue like some people like to claim. I tried for a year to stay on Linux, but all my friends would be playing games I couldn't even lauunch.
I tried just passing on the games I couldn't play at first, to avoid booting into Windows. But that didn't last long and soon I found myself being in Windows 90% of the time.
I wish it wasn't the case because I had an install of endeavor os with gnome and I loved the DE so much it was hard to stay on windows.
But eventually I just stopped booting into Linux and haven't come back.
Maybe in a couple more years when missing out on steam deck revenue is a big deal, I'll be back.
There are no games I really care about that much tbh. I've never been someone who needs to play a certain game
