I agree Windows is flawed but it's where PC gaming is. I know Linux is rising but Linux is distro dependent, if you distro isn't built for gaming chances are it will require manual configuration. So people still use Windows for this fact

It depends. If you use Steam, steams built in Proton tool means it's literally just > install Steam > set proton as default > install and run games as normal.
I have Ubuntu, POP and Fedora running on machines all of which pretty much the same
This is no longer true, my steam deck (which runs on SteamOS (which is Linux)) plays every game in my library. There are a handful of specific genres I would not want to play but that’s handheld-specific, not OS related.

Definitely, gaming on Linux is arguably better than Windows - especially for older games. It's also waaay easier developing games for Linux then cross compiling to Windows & Mac (it's what I do, CWS is 100% Linux)
