I tried in the past, but I think there were problems about the fact that the Windows partition is NTFS, if I recall correctly.

I'd really like to ditch Windows once for all, but I'm sure there's going to be some games that have problems on Linux.

Maybe. It's unlikely except for multiplayer, and even then pretty rare. The Riot games won't work because of the rootkit, but nearly everything else has. Protondb.com if you want to check or ever need help getting something to run.

if you make a symlink to your linux installation compdata folder in your windows steamapps folder you can use NTFS for a steam library.

I use it to have my other NTFS drives still be able to hold steam games
