but if someone asked me to buy them a Xbox I honestly don’t know which one is best… Xbox one series S? I think??

Aaaand they've already failed. Series S is barely better than the previous gen, it's Series X that you want.

The only real benefit of having an xbox is that you cross-own the games with PC. BUT you're restricted to the Windows Store versions, so you can't play on Linux, so for me at least the benefit immediately washes away, as I no longer use Windows. Oh well, I'll just buy my games on Steam and sure, SOME of them will be Microsoft games, but only titles in the like 2 or 3 franchises I care about, Forza and... Oh wait, it's not like the next TES game is ever going to come out. So it's just Forza.
