1: its impossible to use hardware acceleration on chromium browsers on linux
2: nvidia drivers and support are bad on linux,this is linux fault not nvidia fault.
3:no offical apps or games except foss bullshit. its unsupported usecase for every hardware and software out there.
Yet Linux is EVERYWHERE.
Android is based on the Linux kernel.
Linux is your Kindle OS (Paperwhite).
Many cars run Linux, like Toyota, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen, which are all trying to run Linux as “standard”.
Tesla’s infotainment system runs Linux.
iCloud runs on Linux.
Do you have a router in your home? It probably runs on Linux.
The ISS runs on Linux.
NASA runs on Linux.
Roku is Linux.
Of course, SteamOS is Linux (Yeah!).
NYSE runs on Linux.
CERN makes heavy use of Linux.
Many developer tools, like BusyBox, use Linux.
And so much, so very many more places use Linux that you don’t see or think about. In the OS wars, Linux is very much the king.

Yes, Fragmentation makes Linux expensive to support. -Companies frequently cite: Too many distros, divergent library versions, multiple packaging ecosystems, no stable ABI, and different kernels, drivers, and audio stacks.
Easy Anti-Cheat, BattlEye, and Denuvo have all publicly explained that Linux introduces Kernel-level differences, security model mismatches, higher risk of bypasses, and more complex testing requirements.
Linux users are a high‑risk, low‑revenue audience. Linux users are extremely vocal, leave negative reviews for imperfect ports, demand open source, often refuse DRM, have far lower average spend, and expect long-term support for free.
If Linux were profitable, you’d see Adobe Creative Cloud, Autodesk, Corel, Avid, DaVinci Resolve full version, AAA game studios, and Enterprise productivity suites. -They’d be obligated to shareholders to support Linux IF it could be shown to be profitable to do so.
