Distros like bazzite have really picked up but they’ll always be niche projects in the eyes of game dev and publishers. Steam os at least can help them realise that Linux isn’t an instant dismiss because they haven’t used it before.
I have friends in AAA game dev and they all have the same kinda dated idea of Linux being this sweaty crazy programmer distro even though we all play games online together.
If valve can carry on increasing the market share it’ll definitely help get rid of some stereotypes for Devs which in turn brings more market share.
This goes for any Ublue project Aurora and Bluefin too
An acceptable fix, be made better if steam could start storing users game launching variables another on I have to use is the portal flag for Guild Wars 2 to use my arena net account and setting proton on Arma 3 before downloading it to stop it using the Linux version.
