    Hah. You may have accidentally come up with the new “this is the year of Linux Desktop”.

    “Five years from now is the year of Linux gaming being financially relevant short-term” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it, though.

    Honestly, I don’t have any predictions on this. So much is riding on how hard Valve is willing to invest on becoming a OS company and how receptive end users are to it. Right now the outcome falls somewhere between “Steam Machines” and “Nintendo Switch”, and I genuinely don’t think anybody can predict where in between it will fall yet. At the very least we need to see what happens to the Legion Go S and SteamOS adoption.

        Oh, by all means, share your knowledge on the state of gaming. I am looking for investment opportunities right now and that seems like a hot scoop.

          I’m already fighting an unfair labor practice, I’m not interested in being sued for violating NDA.

            You know what? Good luck with that, genuinely.

            You’re still wrong, though. Or at least overconfident.

              Thank you, every ounce of support I get is what keeps me fighting. It’s fine if you disagree, I very well could be overconfident
