Rosenzweig, known for her Panfrost and Apple M1/M2 GPU driver work is now contracted by Valve to work on graphics driver development! Sounds like great news for Valve's push for Linux gaming.

This sounds so unreal, especially for big company like Valve lol.

I have some vague memory that they started seriously pushing for linux support after microsoft tried to limite steam acces on windows 8 or something like that.
But I can't find any info on that...

I remember seeing that stated around the time of steam machines, steam link and steam controller.
