I’m not trying to belittle the contribution of Valve or Proton or anything, completely agree it’s a massive contributor. There’s also a lot of work done by a lot of people to get us to that point (and tbh I flipped a long time ago and did more console gaming, so I kinda see it from the opposite perspective - proton has brought back PC gaming for me rather than allowing me to break free of windows.)
They are helping, yes, but windows 11 is a driving force like I’ve never seen.
It’s only really viable though, because of Steam and Proton
Not everything is vidjagames
No, but those two things have been such a massive driver for Linux adoption, that it isn’t really relevant.
