@thelinuxexperiment plus I'll admit that Valve brought us proton, which is open source and makes running games on Linux a ton more practical (even GOG games) than when we had to tweak wine to do so, often without result (PlayOnLinux nostalgia). Which allows many to ditch a big bad proprietary OS in the first place. So ditching Valve's software and platform, albeit proprietary, may not be the ultimate priority, when there are other proprietary software to focus on.
