If you don't want a Microsoft account, at this point you should really consider switching to Linux.
Fair point but my games only run on windows.
Try a little Proton. There's also Lutris. There hasn't been a game I own that I haven't been able to play on Linux.
Unfortunately, two of my most played games (R6:Siege and Cod MW2) can't run on linux, and last time I checked Visual Studio also.
visual studio is native on linux
Don't play shit games.
No Linux, no buyno.
Yeah well, that's what happens when you have friends that play those games, and you like to get together with them.
You should try it sometime.
Proton is amazing as long as you don't get bit by anticheat, which thankfully is getting better.
Thankfully I don't play many games with anticheat so almost the entirety of my game library runs on my Linux install.
Same I just had this conversation last week with a coworker
Subnautica multiplayer mod nitrox :( Ik its a reach to support but its literally the only thing holding me to windows
