Hold your horses. I wanna bet that companies that jump to linux gravy train as of late are doing so because Valve is about to drop a nuclear bomb of a game changer on the market. These big players want a piece of the cake too and are desperately doing something to stay relevant.

It is good that things are moving linux' way, but I highly doubt that it was because Epic thinks gamers want it.

You are not wrong. This is a good take and something to keep in mind.
