Linux gaming
So you can't even google? dev page is here Its already part of the repos for major distros but in fo some reason you had to or wanted to compile it it has cleanly laid out instructions that a child could follow.

Distro with best ram management on 8gb of memory?
To enable Ubuntu to mimic Windows and macOS swap files consider installing the package swapspace, the dynamic swap space manager. It's in the Ubuntu repository.

Linux is killing a processes before it finishes, but not Windows.
Windows will increase the size of the swapfile as needed. Linux by default does not do so. If you need that capability have a look at swapspace.

If I ran out of memory, how come my disk usage goes to 100% and nothing happens?
there is a program called SwapSpace that should handle dynamically adding swap files as needed. it's like 2 years old so no telling if it still works.

Unreal Engine 5 Slow Boot
Install Swapspace (https://github.com/Tookmund/Swapspace), it is a dynamic swap manager for Linux. Essentially, UE5 needs a lot of RAM, sometimes it will try to get more than you can offer. Swapspace will create, manage, and delete swap files to deal with unseen RAM requirements. (You will feel small freezes for a couple of milliseconds when it creates a new swap file, but other than that it will go on in a breeze.) Just run sudo apt install swapspace and you are off.

Microsoft Edge ignores user wishes, slurps tabs from Chrome without permission
I only really play single player, but I have run into this too. This is a great resource to keep track of progress - https://areweanticheatyet.com/

Bazzite – a Steam0S-like OCI image for desktop, living room, and handheld PCs
It varies by game. https://areweanticheatyet.com/ is an interesting resource for that because they also track announcements by developers about whether or not linux support is eventually planned.

How good is the experience of playing games with Wine or Proton compatibility layers?
AFAIK the games that don't work are more modern, competetive games that use Anticheat. https://areweanticheatyet.com/ is a good resource to see the status of your game.

OLED Dreams
It is game by game basis. Use this guide to see if the game you play is supported or not.
- So you're removing the possible access to play my old games I bought?

Making the switch - what are the gaps?
The only caveat to that is online games with anti-cheat. EAC and BattlEye both support Linux but requires studios to tick a box, many of which refuse. Any kernel-layer AC that doesn't have a userspace component will not run on Linux. Can see a list of games and their AC support here.

Wine 9.0 RC1 – Run Windows Applications on Linux, BSD, Solaris and macOS
> except Multiplayer online games
That's no longer the case. I'd say about now, there are more multiplayer games that you can play, as opposed to ones you can't play.
See: https://areweanticheatyet.com/ as reference, but it's not very up-to-date, so https://www.protondb.com/ would probably be a better reference.

Thinking about switching, what am I giving up?
Only listed the 'bigger' ones, but you have a rather full list here if you want to check your favorite games: arwianticheatyet.com

Are there any major sacrifices you make to play on Linux over Windows?
Nope, just works. There are some games that use invasive kernel-level anticheat that wont work as Linux sensibly blocks anything that shouldn't be messing with the kernel, but I'm not personally interested in those games anyway. EAC and Battleye both support Linux, but requires devs to tick a box, which there's several that can't be bothered.
