      I am. I run cachyos which I run most of my steam games from. If I pirate something I do it in a VM to test it out, and if I like it then I buy it on steam/GOG.

      The VM has very little performance loss either because they’re just that good now or because I have a pretty good pc I’m not sure. I also run games like BanderLord in a VM so I can mod with vortex. (Yes the setup is very stupid, but it’s a glass castle and I’m scared to move anything)

      Steam already runs games in a form of container (pressure vessel) in Linux, it’s quite secure.

      Also, in this day an age, anybody that is conscious or security plays games in a dedicated machine…
