Android is linux in the same way than gnu/linux is linux, that's an objective fact.
But linux (gnu/linux) in the last years has become a lot better, when steam came out it was an unstable mess compared to now, things like plasma 5 are helping linux a lot

Quoting: ShmerlGaming wise Linux already is probably ahead of OS X, especially for high end gaming. Apple's hardware simply can't cope with the times, and their software is even worse (OpenGL is in bit rot state there, no Vulkan support coming and so on). Expect OS X gaming usage to plummet going forward.
With metal lacking many features and gl stuck on 4.1 I can see than in the future people like feral and aspyr will have a bad time trying to support mac os when it comes to AAA games. Because this bad decisions from apple, they will be happy than they started working on the linux market years ago, as a way to save their business on the long term.

Why don't you switch to nvidia-prime?
because I have tried to enable it on manjaro but I always end with the system not booting (since it requires chages in xorg.conf or equivalent). And I know than there is an easy way to use reverse-prime, but its only for ubuntu-based distros.
And for what I have seen, primus doesnt support it either https://github.com/Bumblebee-Project/Bumblebee/issues/769 [External Link]
