Well, obviously if you were jumping on and off the improvements look big, but as a continuous user of Linux since the late 90ties I can assure you that is was mostly a gradual improvement.

Sadly multiplayer compatibility due to anti-cheat is still a sticking point as has not improved that much overall.

It seems to have gotten a lot better lately with EAC games at least. Hunt Showdown getting official anti-cheat support due to the Steamdeck was a big one for me. And a bunch of other big games that I personally don't play got support too, like Dead By Daylight and Apex Legends.
