They also need to push Linux explicitly. Something like exclusive deals or sponsoring in game events if you play on Linux. Though it might just end up like TF2 with people logging in on a new device, getting the exclusive items, and using it as a currency to trade without actually using the OS lol

Or, optimize CSGO and Dota and VAC for Linux and start using it in competitions to attract more curious minds.

They could enforce SteamOS in Dota2/CSGO esports events. That would be a huge boost
