The year of gaming on Linux has come before the year of desktop on Linux, who would have thought!
- em-bee 4y agoit makes a lot of sense actually, the problem with desktop linux is the GUI. and windows compatibility/similarity, exchange of data (word, etc), user preferences. the problem with games is only windows compatibility. nothing else matters. valve has been attacking that problem head on with proton and financing wine development. GUI or data issues, or user preferences don't matter. Steam is the same on both, the games are the same too, and more and more of them run on proton/linux. Steam users can switch from windows to linux without noticing any difference whatsoever. desktop users can't.
