        you cant say it doesnt do exactly what you want.

        As someone (a different guy than whom you’re replying to) who has primarily used Linux-based systems in personal settings for about 15 years or so, I can and will say that.

        For the most part, Linux-based systems tend to do exactly what you tell them to do. Whether or not this is exactly what you want, however, is a slightly different point.

        Nearly 30 years of LINUX experience. I can definitely say on a regular basis that LINUX doesn’t do exactly what I want.

        If you know exactly what you want and how to do it.

        I spent countless hours trying to make my display driver working in Linux years ago. I knew what I wanted, but it was impossible. For me at least. I know many who has similar experiences.

          where are talking about files, not drivers from others companies that depend on their support

            No op just said Linux does exactly what you want. My point is that it sometimes is very hard to know how to do what you want. I am not saying Windows is any better in this regard though.

        I want it to play rocket league. Without using wine or proton.

        There are some things that Linux won’t allow you to do natively. I understand it’s better because it’s open, but come on.
