Installing games on steam and playing them sounds like what you do on Linux 99% of the time too

Nah, you spend more time configuring than actually playing.

You even have to configure and emulate Windows, so you can configure your game on there.

I had to emulate windows once and it was for pyinstaller, not even a game. I doubt you have any experience at all

I’m assuming they’re referring to Proton/Wine, which is pretty great that exists, but the fact you need it in the first place, plus random incompatibilities and needing to add flags for some games, makes it less than ideal compared to Windows where everything just works™.
