The latest Steam Hardware & Software Survey is out for June 2023, and it shows just how much the Linux share is now influenced by the Steam Deck.

Valve really needs to push for Linux compatibility adoption for anti-cheat software.
Once Linux gets adopted by these companies, there's really no other feature Linux gaming can't one-up Windows gaming.

A few of them did. The problem is also implementation in the games.

In the past few months, I've been able to play more multiplayer games in Linux than before (notably Insurgency and Squad now work).

I tend to mostly play single player, but all in all, I don't even remember when I last booted my Windows partition. If it wasn't for a last glimmer of hope of reviving my Oculus CV1, I'd probably wipe it.
