macOS is "good enough" for occasional gaming. I mean, it has a decent graphics API these days, rather nice GPUs and Steam. What else would one need?

Hmm? They only came when Windows 10 was released, and it was a bad choice: see Microsoft giving now us 35 days to say yes or "more time" for the updates.RirtualViot2013 wrote: Fri Jul 24, 2026 4:59 pm Windows has been a great OS, but its historically being plagued by automatic updates
Though us running Pro versions, can use GPO to block it completely.

Automatic updates? Only if did not configured them to do so, then they stayed out of the way, unlike in 10 and 11 (without Pro version and GPO modification).
