Which is exactly my point, keeping game studios on Windows + Visual Studio acomplishes nothing in regards to cut the dependency on Windows gaming.

Is that a fair comparison? It seems like people have a compelling reason to use Linux (hardware compatibility, avoiding MS spyware, price, etc). I admit it was before my time, but what was the draw for OS/2? Even it's technical superiority to Windows was gone as soon as NT dropped right?
I wouldn't say that. Software support for Linux is a chicken and egg problem. No software because there's no users because there's no software.
Proton helps fix the users part. If a critical mass is accomplished, that can have real long-term impact.
