Comment on Linuxulator on FreeBSD Feels Like Magicparent

Which is the same reason I don't like Proton, as it in the end doesn't change Windows status quo as the platform for game developers, and hardly any different from using MAME, Vice, Stella, Mesen, Linux-UAE,....

Valve tried really hard to steer the world into native Linux ports, it simply didn't pan out, that ship has already sailed.

And now is subject to the whims of Microsoft, wherever Windows, DirectX, Visual Studio go, Valve must follow.

Additionally, everyone is betting on Valve as if Steam would be around forever serving Linux gaming with Proton, except no one lives forever, and who knows what will happen to Valve, when current management passes the torch.
