I like Linux alot.

But if the biggest multiplayer games straight up don't support it, that needs to be acknowledged.

Add League of Legends to the list.

I've had Deck verified games straight up refuse to work on Linux.

It always feels like it's my fault somehow. 'Well of COURSE Wayland doesn't work, skill issue'. Vs Windows where I can blame Microsoft.

It should be acknowledged, yes, but not while failing to mention that it mostly applies to the genre of competitive shooters. "Generally don't run" doesn't apply to pretty much anything else, where a statement closer to truth would be "generally run, with some notable exceptions".
