The recent news that SteamOS may soon be shipped with third-party devices could be particularly important for Linux gaming on desktops.

Even gamers nexus’ Steve today said that they’re about to start doing Linux games performance testing soon. It’s happening, y’all, the year of the Linux desktop is upon us. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

    Linux doesn’t run as many games as Windows

    I’d argue it runs more due to compatibility breaks. Wine just-werks with a lot of old installers.

      Indeed. I couldn’t get a couple of old 3DO games working on windows 10/11 even though I bought them on Steam.

      Work great on Linux w/ Photon (aka wine).

      Hit or miss sadly, but still damn close to magic. I can play skyrim and it runs… As expected, but can’t install dark souls rn.
