Absolutely:

  • lots of games don't work
  • anti-cheat games in general still don't work, and that's a massive market
  • some games have terrible perf through Proton

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.
