To your first comment about incompatible anticheat - in must cases it's a conscious decision the publisher makes. Are We Anti-Cheat Yet it's a good resource. Personally I find my OS preventing me from being able to run a privacy invading rootkit to be a pro as well.
To the second comment, a good amount of games bench better on Linux, not sure what's going on with his system so I agree.
Definitely unfortunate to see a creator publishing content without first doing some research but that's more and my common nowadays.
This YouTuber in particular does indeed just frequently throw out statements without properly checking whether they are even true at all.
It’s a big problem with this guy for sure, but also he’s usually pretty good at admitting when he’s wrong and calling himself out on it. I wonder if he’ll look into this again to get some clarity.
