I’m in a similar boat as you and my current plan is to switch to PopOS. They are Ubuntu/Debian based so you will be familiar with it, and they also are a distro that is more focused on gaming, so you will have an easier time with video card drivers.

I do it because I like having full control over my data and services. Nobody can take it away from me or change the terms in which its provided.

Which is a lot when you are at that level of competition.

Being tall is not ideal for short distance sprinting.

I think a John Wick game with a similar gameplay style as Rise Son of Rome would be killer.

They do sell skins. Also its on Gamepass, so Microsoft may see it as a game that attracts subscribers.

It’s happening!
