I tried to switch to linux like 6 or so years ago and kinda gave up because most games i played back then weren’t compatible, or you had to jump through too many hoops. One day i’ll try again
Proton has changed things pretty significantly over the last few years in this regard. Gaming should be a much more pleasant experience when you do decide you want to give it another go.
The advent of proton on steam and all the stuff developed for the steamdeck has made gaming on Linux (at least in my experience) nearly indistinguishable from Windows. Very hapy I made the switch

For me that day was a little over a year ago. It finally stuck! My games run! Even SteamVR works!

This. Linux is just solid now. There are tradeoffs, but fewer than going, say, Mac.
Some games won’t work. Most will, or will work after some light tweaking.
I tried, got sick if having to read multi-step instructions just to install some piece of software.
