Probably because GOG/CDPR don't actually give a fuck about Linux. They made that perfectly clear with the whole "Witcher 3 coming to Linux" fiasco. Maybe I am just bitter, but I feel like even the DRM-free aspect of their business model isn't through any values they hold. It is just a business decision to corner a niche market.

True, but unless Google starts militarising or something the only thing they can do with my mothers data is target some ads at her. Which she will completely ignore since she will only buy things from the same 2 or 3 sites she has visited for the past 10-15 years.
Even on Steam it's far from perfect, but it is getting a lot better and quickly too. The Steam Deck deserves a huge amount of praise for that. I just wish EAC would force their Linux compatibility option rather than leaving it to devs to opt-in. It would be nice if other anti-cheats got on board with similar things too.
My mother is technologically impaired. Her last (Windows Vista) laptop was a nightmare from the day she got it. She absolutely loves her Chromebook. All she uses it for is online shopping/banking/emails, so it is perfect for her.
I run KDE Plasma and very rarely have issues with wayland either. Maybe I am imagining it but it feels smoother than X11. I love that in wayland I can use adaptive sync with multiple monitors connected. X11 can't do that. My main issue with it is that anything involving screenshare doesn't work properly. So steamplay (as host, client is fine), slack screenshare (again, as the sharer) don't work. I don't understand all the people having issues, maybe it's a hardware/driver thing? On my AMD GPU it is practically flawless.
