That would be awesome, but sadly the biggest shift wont happen until the major anti cheats start supporting proton.

It's even worse.

They are adding Linux support - but only if it detects you are running ~~the exact model of OLED screen as Steam Deck has~~ on SteamDeck, and blocks every other Linux device.

EDIT: There is some kind of hardware validation that can't be easily spoofed, I vaguely remember reading it was based on the screen HW, but that's beside the point.

Infinity Nikki does this :(

That's exactly how I found out about this, I was really looking forward to that game.

I think I also saw it somewhere else, but don't remember what it was.
