Has Steam Deck done good for the rest of the linux community? (beehaw.org)

I was wondering if steam deck's existence made linux gaming better for you folks who do not have a deck yet game on a linux machine, as im afraid it did nothing for me at all. I'm trying to see if its failure to influence my side of linux gaming is purely anecdotal.

Thanks!

It's possible that SteamOS and the SteamDeck are part of the incentive that finally made nVidia get to work on open-source GPU drivers and Wayland-compatibility
