Historically? Not really I’ve heard it was buggy and there were not linux binaries. Though they have started offering distro agnostic binaries around 2022. EGS has no native linux installer and Tim doesn’t like linux.

As a Linux user maybe if you make a native app for EGS and then contribute to Linux gaming I might care about EGS.
hasn’t the Unreal engine historically been good on linux?

So and so. Unreal Tournament 2003 came with a bootable Linux CD that went right to the game. Awesome concept but apparently they didn’t keep it up.
My only exposure to Linux has been through the deck, but isn’t this why people use Heroic Games Launcher?
