    They still need Windows to run nearly 99% of games.

    No you don’t? Literally that’s what proton does

    The biggest holdouts are specific kernel anticheat solutions.

      honestly steam os is in many ways better at running old ass windows programs than windows.

      Case in point, Steel Panthers (WinspMBT or WinspWW2) is an ancient DOS game that can’t run in fullscreen without crashing on Windows and honestly I prefer it on my deck because it inherently runs the game in fullscreen and overall seems to run it better than my windows computer ever did.
