I don't think it's dead, because a major hurdle for gaming on Linux is the hardware heterogeneity, and the fact that there isn't the same volume of potential customers on the end-user side. However, Stadia brings a Linux platform with well-defined specs, which greatly reduce the amount of configuration to test, like a game console. Many game developers are already used to a Linux/Unix/BSD-like environment if they develop for the PlayStation and the Switch, so I think they still stand a good chance. On the topic of Nvidia, I'm glad they're jumping with some competition.
