@vaartis So #Valve basically admitted that #LinuxGaming is more important than #MacGaming, since #CS2 has been released for #Linux at the same date as #CSGO...

@kkarhan @vaartis Is that news to anyone? Valve has always invested much more into Linux gaming than Mac gaming.

@chrisoffner3d @vaartis Considering #Apple's walled garden and Microsoft's attempts re-monopolize #PC #gaming, #Linux is the way to go for #Valve, because going with #FreeBSD would've been more expensive to them - which is why only big console manfuacturers like #Nintendo and #Sony do it...

@kkarhan @chrisoffner3d @vaartis expensive how?

@Lulukaros @chrisoffner3d @vaartis they'd have to basically invent the entire 3D stack and bring it up to speed or at least on-par with #Linux.

Last time I checked #FreeBSD didn't even support #Vulkan...

Both Nintendo and Sony have their own proprietary frameworks and pipelines to do 3D and 2D and not even support like 100% of OpenGL ES 3.1 which is the basis of Vulkan 1.0
