@EmoIsDeadAndSoAmI @david >I mean you could totally run free software indie games from itch.io or something
Why would you do that instead of just installing them via a package manager?

itch.io mostly contains nonfree games.

>many indie devs only compile for windows for economic reasons
It's due to proprietary libraries and/or incompetence.

Many games are just OpenGL+GLUT+C++, which will compile just fine on GNU/Linux with no changes if it was competently programmed.
