   @DarkMahesvara >"almost no games on Linux"
   The kernel, Linux has no games, as kernels don't usually implement games (as that's not the right place to implement them usually).
   
   The steam deck runs GNU/Linux, although it also has WINE+DVXK+esync (proton), which allows running proprietary malware games written for windows.
   
   It is NOT a success to be able to run greater amounts of proprietary malware on an OS than before.
   
   
   GNU/Linux had plenty of freedom respecting games even before "Steam" was a thing: https://libregamewiki.org/Main_Page
