    There are native Linux games

    They exist. How many of them do you see on the front page of the Steam store? Almost never. Games that people actually play are very rarely Linux native. If they were, Proton never would have been created.

          of the current top 30 on most played on steam 7 have a native Linux version, just shy of 1/4. I’d hardly call that almost never.

              Was your exact quote, I think showing 1/4 of the most played games on Steam are linux native shows that isnt the case.

                Games people actually play

                Games that are played most often

                Do you see the difference there?

                You’re talking about seven games. Seven. 7. Do you know how many games there are?
