I guess I just wanted to add a couple data points to the discussion. One is that even though the article is about "all games", it so happens that "top 1000 games" (measured in some way) happen to share the same number. And I didn't want to round it because that would have been a reporting error.

The other point being that out of the "top 10 games" (measured in some way), only 6 are playable on Linux. What I didn't say is that one of the other 4 games cannot be played at all. Those are not numbers I want to see. I want all top 10 games to be playable.

That's fair. Honestly, the only games in my experience that don't run on Linux have been artificially crippled with anticheat; I even play some old ones that don't even run on windows anymore 😂
