> Valve only needs to maintain wine & proton for a distribution. The games themselves ? well, they are windows only. Nobody compiles for Linux. All gamers either dual boot windows...or android. Even for those who game on Linux, they do it on an abstraction layer like Wine This isn't true at all. I'm afraid you've misunderstood the situation. Get on steam and check for yourself. There are many games compiled for Linux specifically (in addition to other platforms) that do not require proton. They use some ubuntu or debian packages for their libraries and have no linkage to anything windows.
