Word on the tech business side is that everyone is ready to flip to Linux or an Android alternative (Opensource with all the paid for attachments to bring it up to speed) as operating systems are much more accessible now and Microsoft has lost its way.
We'll see though as they flip and flop with their decisions more than the white papers that ZDNet used to use to make recommendations.
I've tried. It's been tough with games--especially if you aren't a Steam acolyte and play a lot of games older than 5 years. I'm still going to push that way as I can. Maybe just the modern stuff I play. At which point, I could pretty easily roll back to a locked down Windows 10 for everything else. I guess lucky for me I really only game on my Windows machine, so their telemetry that I haven't disabled is going to look about like what they'd get from a game console.

There's a loader called Lutris that makes running non-Steam games/programs painless and simple. http://lutris.net/
Yeah, that's on my list. I'm going to try it once I get to a real dual boot. I have to get my hands on (buy) a 2.5" SSD first
