GOG recently got on my radar since I heard they'd be focusing more on Linux support

Even if GOG gets Linux support it won’t make the devs come there.

I don't mind not having large games, even if it ends up being an indie fest I'd be very content with that

Indies don’t release there either. I wrote about an observation in this comment thread - small devs are no longer releasing their games outside of Steam because they need all sales to go into one pot - if they split it between stores they rank lower in the only store that matters.
