Microsoft's loss is gamers' gain in this area I think.

Besides, MSFT is almost $500, so they're doing something right.

Care to expand on this? Or did you just want to make a random statement?

This very reductive way of thinking is exactly why everything is getting enshitified to the max.

By Microsoft's loss and gamers' gain I mean that Linux used to be nonviable to play games, but Valve put a lot of effort into making games work on Linux (and continues to do so). They saw (and maybe still see?) Microsoft as a threat to Valve's future.

So now gamers have gained another platform to play games!

> but Valve put a lot of effort into making games work on Linux

Yes! this is competition at its finest, right? It is also what I was talking about in my original comment.

> So now gamers have gained another platform to play games!

Yup, this is definitely a good thing. Yes gamers get another platform and hopefully gets MS to focus on Windows to make it better and less hostile to users.

Gamers are also quite vicious and they will tarnish the reputation of anything that doesn't work well for them. Let's see how Linux will fare in their hands.

While I agree with the basic sentiment, racism really doesn't deserve a place here, please don't do this.

That's not racism. That's a play on his last name. Just because actual Nutella has a dark color doesn't make my comment racist.

Grow up and stop finding racism in everything.
