Is this about Linux gaming? (feddit.cl)

Half serious question because I've been browsing this for a while, but, is this /c/ really about Linux gaming? Most if not every post is about Steam, Proton, Windows games, and Windows game companies. Feels more like /c/windowsgamingonlinux to me, which I'm not contra to but, I feel it deprives some naming space (good names are finite!) from something like... well, native Linux games.

Could help if there was a way to tag posts that are not really about games for Linux.

What? If I'm playing a game developed for windows, on linux, via proton, is that not me playing a game using linux? If you want to post about a native linux game, nobody will stop you, go for it, but don't try to exclude other people's gaming experiences just because the game isn't native.
