AYANEO will have their own OS called "AYANEO OS" based on Linux
Well I mean I think you can kill explorer.exe and use your custom ui (see cairo shell) but you can't completely rewrite compositor and add functionality to it

Open source desktop applications list
Cairo Shell is not really a "desktop app" and more of a "desktop" in itself.
- What has been your experience with alternative shells?

It seems like Hyper-V Server 2019 will be the last free hypervisor from Microsoft
This makes sense in both small and medium sized operations and can save quite a bit of money. Zero licensing costs, ease of administration, ease of backup, DR options from replication. You can even add a thin desktop layer with something like Cairo Desktop Environment to allow local management.

Pre installed software would be banned under antitrust package
And what does 'pre-installed' software mean? Windows Explorer (the start menu is part of this) is pre-installed and not core to the operating system, and third party solutions work (https://github.com/cairoshell/cairoshell for instance) - does the OS boot into nothing? Same goes with the default shell in Android

Making the switch - what are the gaps?
For "normal" games you could look yourself using ProtonDB regarding every game released on Steam and AreWeAntiCheatYet for most multiplayer games. If a game isn't available on Steam you have three possibilities. First if it's available on GOG, Epic Games or Amazon Gaming, you could use the Heroic Games Launcher. Second you could try to run the launchers through Steam itself using once again Proton. Third you could try installing it with a script or tutorial in Lutris or Bottles.

WoW Season of Discovery freezes on every honorable kill!
Can I suggest you head over to the lutris.net site and follow the link the lutris discord - with what you are describing, it would take me 20 minutes to get the base battle.net working so you can see what is causing your issue or 3 days back and forwards here. As a hint, your wine version has known issues, and unless you manually installed the lutris 0.5.14 from the git page in Mint, or are running flatpak, you have other issues related to that

Lutris how to make Nvidia primary Gpu
Hmmm I remember there was some confusion in Lutris around this, like https://github.com/lutris/lutris/issues/4237 , and I had to do some workaround. But I can't check what exactly right now...

Windows 11 is last in gaming performance tests against 3 Linux gaming distros
As a data point, you can run a fair number of Windows games under Proton by using Lutris instead of Steam:
* https://lutris.net
* https://github.com/lutris/lutris
It's an OSS game launcher that takes the place of Steam, and you can set things up to run locally so you don't even need an account on their system (lutris.net).

I recommend using the repos, but WINE HQ if you need it ( https://www.winehq.org/ ) * Lutris is a front-end to WINE which makes installing and running non-Steam games easy. It can be found in the repos ( https://lutris.net/ ) * How-To videos for setting up various distros for gaming ( https://www.youtube.com/@IntelligentGaming2020/videos ).
