Yep and it seems to line up with the rise of the Steam Deck and all the discussion around how viable gaming on Linux is these days. I think there were/are a LOT of people that only stick with Windows due to gaming. Hopefully as gaming support continues to improve on Linux more of those people will make the switch.

I don't even think much when running games anymore. Even DRM-free games I get from Gog I can just click on and run with Wine most of the time. It's so awesome.
