      Sure, but you still need to package Steam for all different “Linux distributions” (I put it in quotes, because I dislike the term) separately, or use things like Flatpak, which some people might be comfortable with, and others not really.

      And if you go to page like ProtonDB, it shows that people have all different hardware and software configurations and it’s a big mess, because you are never sure if game will work or not, until you try (and maybe try different “hacks” to get it running). I have problems running ETS2 (Euro Truck Simulator 2) on Debian, even though it run on Windows fine, and let me say: I don’t have time for this shit.

      I use Linux, because I am fed up with Windows, and I don’t really play games anymore (or at least modern titles) but if I replace my computer this year to get new build (will run Debian of course), I think I will just install either Bazzite or Windows 11 (or both) on the PC I am currently using, and let my brother play games there.
