In your opinion, why is the "trust in Proton" not considered "developing for Linux"?
Is your argument specifically about the game developer's mental model for Linux's priority, or something core about the Proton abstraction layer?
All software runs on some abstraction. So specifically, if the game developer prioritized a Linux port by explicitly testing Proton, would that be enough for you to consider the game "developed for Linux"?
- mariusor 2y agoThe consumer artifact for a game developed for a platform is a binary that can run natively on that platform. Regarding games, that is a binary that targets the ubuntu based Steam Linux Runtime. That's what I meant when I said that devs should be able to target it as a regular console SDK.
