Why isn’t fedora visible in those stats ? Am I the only one using stock fedora for gaming ?

I look at this and wonder
Why gog galaxy and epic client were ported to macos and linux users still didn't get native game binaries from epic?

I didn't realize comments are formatted in markdown

I so very much hope that the Linux gaming effect increases. Not only for gaming, but for the productivity world. If development of these 'compatibility layers' (Wikipedia) like Proton, Wine improves and maybe win-native software (thinking of CAD in particular) can be made working reliably on Linux using these packages, one or the other big player might adapt. That would be a much cheaper way of expanding the software's range than developing and maintaining a native Linux port...

... and maybe I am too naive.
