I would think the popularity of Steam Deck and Proton would lower incentive for developers to make Linux native ports since it's been shown that the Windows version just works most of the time.

Simon the Sorcerer Origins was the latest Linux native game I installedand it was catastrophic. The run script didn't work at all. They didn't even run it once. It consisted of only two lines and both were totally wrong. And once I had corrected those lines the controls didn't work.

Switching to Proton and downloading the Windows version made it work out of the box.

It's a shame.
