<p>Bjango turns 20 years old this month! 🎉 We’re incredibly grateful for the amazing community and friends we&#39;ve met along the way. Thank you. <a href="https://bjango.com/articles/twodecades/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">bjango.com/articles/twodecades/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux" class="u-url mention">@<span>gamingonlinux</span></a></span> Yeah, I have heard the news.</p><p>The idea behind this is to ensure that <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Windows</span></a> stays Number 1 in gaming. This is a strong signal to the <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>gaming</span></a> industry. Don&#39;t even think of supporting <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/steamos" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>steamos</span></a> for desktop! Because we are WINTEL and we want to dominate the market for sure.</p><p>The question is: who needs yet another mobile PC device? There are plenty, including the Steam Deck. And the <a href="https://troet.cafe/tags/xbox" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>xbox</span></a> brand ain&#39;t so strong any longer ...</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@gamingonlinux" class="u-url mention">@<span>gamingonlinux</span></a></span> Gabe Newell was right. Microsoft wants a bigger piece of the PC gaming pie, and that&#39;s going to be an uphill battle for Steam on Windows. </p><p>Valve has done great work, but it took some time. I&#39;m worried Valve&#39;s Linux efforts might not be able to keep up, but I sure hope so.</p>
