I think it's more just getting ready the MS deal to finalise as MS have commited to make sure all their stuff is available on Steam. Wouldn't surprise me if we see Diablo 4 soon too.

Hopefully this doesn’t stop valve from continuing to push for Linux compatibility

Unlikely. Microsoft is now first and foremost a cloud provider and has been putting a lot of time and effort into their own Linux offerings, and desktop Windows just isn't the hypercritical lynchpin for their bottom line that it used to be.

Doubt it given what a success the Deck has been.

Remember Games for Windows Live? susie-laugh

Yeah, it was a disaster, but to be fair to them, they were trying to bring in stone stuff that's now standard like PC/Console crossplay and play anywhere on one purchase.
