10 years ago Steam released for Linux

I'm starting to feel old. I remember a time before Steam for Linux, back in the dark days even before the first set of Humble Indie Bundles, it's truly crazy how far Linux has come overall as a platform for gaming.

Thanks to this, I had an actual option to ditch Windows when 10 came out and drove me nuts.

It was so long of a wait too! The rumours, the squashed rumours and even more rumours.. I was amazed when it actually happened!

Holy shit it's been a decade?! Man I remember when it was announced. I'd been Linux only for 2 years at that point and running Steam in Wine worked.. barely. Super exciting to get a native client and then watch the number of native Linux games increase year over year. Now the Steam Deck. Quite a ride.

hehehe, I remember installing either the Linux version and the Windows version on Crossover and taking a screenshot with both running, just because I could!
