“single-handedly” lmao, as if newell is the guy doing all the work and not the valve employees who work for him… or, yknow, the contributors to all the open-source projects steamos is built on

proton and steamos would be nowhere today without the decades of work by the WINE/DXVK contributors, and the myriad of other open-source projects that make Linux into what it is. all valve did was add their proprietary client on top of that (as well as fund the development of proton, tbf, i’m thankful for them on that one… but again, that work was done by valve employees and contributors, not the billionaire CEO)

He’s the one who makes all the decisions. That’s what matters here.

proton and steamos would be nowhere today without the decades of work by the WINE/DXVK contributors

And Proton wouldn’t exist at all without Valve.

all valve did was add their proprietary client on top of that

That’s completely false.

that work was done by valve employees and contributors, not the billionaire

The billionaire is the one who told them to do it.

The billionaire is the one who told them to do it.

So what? They would have eventually done it without him.
