I know that nowadays this is not such a big deal anymore, but as someone who first installed #linux in 1997 (Red Hat 4.2), it's still a bit crazy to me that I can just set up a desktop, install Steam, download a game from my library, and start playing. And every piece of hardware I have just works, including the Switch Pro Controller I use for PC gaming.
