why doesnt valve demand devs make linux builds? if microsoft changed their apis wouldnt new games just not work on proton?

    I really don’t understand the reasoning. Obviously wine works only on Linux, it converts Windows calls to Linux… And there are Windows devs targeting proton compatibility specifically?! In my opinion proton could somehow helps devs realizing that there could be a Linux market but that doesn’t go further than that.

      A lot of them aim for Steam Deck, so maybe not explicitly, but yeah.
