    less than 10% of my games run on Linux

    I’m kinda curious to see your games list

        that shit isn’t mainstream compatible

        That “shit” is steadily getting better, while windows steadily decays. That “shit” won’t remain niche forever.

      I couldn’t find a way to get a breakdown of this, but browsing Stream’s Linux compatible list showed just a handful of games I own (Portal 2, Dying Light, Terraria), and spot checking my ±20 favorites resulted in just one compatible title (Cities: Skylines). So I ballparked it at <10%.

      I’ve since learned from this thread that this information doesn’t accurately reflect Linux support, though.

        The list you linked is for games with native ports to Linux, not the ones you can run through proton. But dozens of others already pointed you to it, check it out sometime.

          Yes, I’m aware of that now, I was just providing background regarding how I came to the 10% in my original comment.
