@PseudoSpock I don't blame Linux, I blame the game developers for not making linux versions of their games. Valve, Steam, Proton and the Steam deck are improving things for gaming on linux. Yes, I'd rather have native games, but it's still better than nothing. I'm not gonna play HL2 till the end of time or tux racer because nobody wants to make native games for Linux.
If Valve can invent a bandaid solution to get people gaming on linux, it will increase linux market share and developers might see a reason to make games for it.
