I’d definitely change it, but I require multiple applications that run only in windows.

It's not necessary to use only one operating system. You've already tried that. The main issue is fixing GRUB.

It seems unlikely someone would choose Windows when Linux offered comparable or better market presence and software backing. In fact, the main advantage of Windows appears to be its widespread popularity.

You can run multiple operating systems on the same device by installing them separately. Each OS operates independently, allowing you to switch between them as needed.

My Crucial M4 has Windows set up, while my 80GB HDD runs Linux Mint 17.3. It’s okay to use different operating systems on separate drives—some people even had eight at once. With a bit of effort, you can run multiple OSes on one drive, but sticking to one is simpler and more reliable.

They often provide automatic partitioning for most Linux setups. This is essential for laptops or compact devices that typically use just one hard drive.

It seems like your approach has always been limited to just one operating system. Most of the others fail completely. There doesn’t appear to be any consistent reason why certain ones work while others don’t.

Ensure all games are executed directly, replacing the primary operating system I typically use.

Every time I try using linux on a 2k 14" screen, the scaling is terrible. It's either 200% scaling which is too big or 100% scaling which requires a microscope. There's fractional scaling but it's terrible and there's a performance hit. I guess all linux users mostly run on <1080p or something. That's the main reason why I haven't switched on my main laptop. On my junker I'm running Solus.
