That's good to know I have so many PS4 controllers alot of busted PS3 ones too but might work if I get them fixed. My stepfather had a Linux mint on his PC and it was pretty easy to use from my short lived experience with it
Mint's pretty good from the little I've messed with it.
regarding gaming, WINE has existed for a longtime for playing windows software, though it has its limitations. When valve came out with Proton, it made things a lot easier, though.
...And Gog does a pretty good job of supporting linux as well, though most of the older titles on Gog work fine under WINE if for no other reason than they're twenty/thirty years old at this point...
Yeah I'm hard pressed on getting a Windows or Linux gaming PC but I got $ put aside for it and time to weigh out the Pro's and Con's but I got to live out my games on PS4 first before I move
toss a linux distro on an old pc if you have one and play around with it. maybe put a few older favorites from steam onto it and see how it works (the older the better, more time for compatibility to be worked out, and fewer resource needed on an older computer).
worst case scenario, you can usually install linux onto a new computer with a few tweaks to bios/uefi settings. I've personally never run into a computer that you can't get to run linjux without changing some settings, but it's possible there are some out there.
