The cost to maintain “native” ports is too high to make sense for most developers.

If that was the case, no console ports would exist, except maybe Xbox because Xbox uses modified Windows internally.

Proton also makes it easier to preserve games since an “native” port would become incompatible overtime without work to adapt the software to changes in the system it’s running.

Inform yourself what Steam Linux Runtime is before making such comments. You are 100% wrong.

How fucking idiot would you have to be to complain about users sending bug reports. Linux users usually send very detailed bug reports, which can uncover bugs that might happen on all platforms.

Well, that's even worse. You are auto-generating bug reports and complaining about the users that send those reports 🤦
