Uh... I used Linux on the desktop for 19 years, and desperately wanted this to happen, but last time I looked, Linux still only accounted for a couple of percent of Steam platforms. Maybe this will change with the Steam Deck, but that's a gimme.

My company has a Linux Slack channel and that's where I finally got to know a lot of 'real people' who also use Linux lol
