That's nice. Hopefully it getting more notorious means that HW companies will support it better. But, at the same time, if this is just from the Steam Deck, then, kinda fugged

I dunno, I see the steam deck as a huge win for Linux. It shows people how simple Linux gaming can be.

It is a win, but it's more of a Steam Deck win than a plain Linux one.

But if some gaming peripheral maker wants to advertise Steam Deck support they will essentially have to support Linux at least!
