Comment on Steam Machine

And yet, with Proton they’re one of the biggest contributors to Linux adoption in the past several years. They’re allowing millions of users to cut the last string that was binding them to Windows

They are also routing million of users through a proprietary third software launcher. Don’t forget that steam was built on and fueled the windows ecosystem for two decades.

That’s nonsense, as if Windows needed any help being dominant in its heyday

Most people don’t really use windowns because they like it but because of the third parties applications that only run on windows, so yea you can point the finger at third parties.
