Steamdeck has done such good things for Linux gaming, it’s like an overnight shift in development attitudes and I love it.
The Steam Deck may not have a ton of users, but enough that developers are willing to put in a little more effort to ensure compatibility.
Maybe if Valve could work out shipping them to other regions officially we'd see more growth. I still see people lamenting that they can't buy a Deck without going to some sketchy third-party and overpaying.
Blame the laws of the countries where that happens. The legislatures there have been captured by their own corporations.
I really hope the momentum continues. Part of me is worried that the Asus ROG Ally is eating into that momentum.
