But it's apparently the easiest, since Valve is already working on it. You just need to shift a significant portion of technical users to Linux and the other use-cases will follow.
Absolutely:
That said, most games work fine on Linux, but the ones that don't are pretty popular.
Most anticheat isn't a technical issue though, it's just companies blocking Linux.
I never said it was. I said it's a problem that limits Linux adoption.
No worries. I also don't play MP, so the vast majority of games just work for me. However, we're talking about broad market adoption, not you or me.
I'd say, having to install ProtonGE to make a game work is still quite a hassle.
