I mean, I think most of us understand why GOG's Linux support is miles behind Steam's, but that doesn't change the fact that it is behind. Years ago I bought several games from GOG because of the no DRM policy; but once Steam released a Linux version, and began pumping resources into Proton, the choice for me was easy, and I switched over. I understand GOG's position, but I don't think there's anything wrong with people pointing out how GOG doesn't have the same level of Linux support as Steam does. That's useful information.
Steam has been absolutely amazing, and I think one of the only companies that realize the corner their in.
I've really not seen a whole of the history, but it seems that is definetly carving out a way forward for them.
Heh, a little thing: if you don't support something, you won't see anyone from there because there can be none.
I'm supportive of GOG generally, but haven't really played around enough with it to form a full opinion
