Because they are a scummy company, they want full control.

This is not surprising at all.

There's plenty of ways to add more functionality with user scripts, also lots of front ends to pick from.

Yea if you have a potato pc then vlc is probably the better choice, mpv is built to perform on newer hardware. Although, I have never tested as I don't have a low/old spec PC laying around anymore.

Its worth it to try, it's much faster than vlc and highly configurable.

Who is using vlc when mpv exists?

Linux is not getting exclusive builds anytime soon, in our lifetime I'd wager. So Windows builds would still exist anyway, so it would make no difference having native Linux builds, it would only be a bonus. Besides, if Linux somehow eclipses Windows to a point developers don't support Windows anymore, then I'm sure there would be compatibility layers or whatever built to run old Linux games on newer hardware too.

Abandon nvidia. Buy amd/intel gpus.

Absolutely. You are right, the initial uptake is more important right now. Most of the Linux market share on Steam is the Steam Deck right now.

Where's the source for that? Every statistic I can find puts Linux at about 4% (never above 5 in history) and specifically for Steam, it's at 2.69%.
