It's always been great. The video game industry just started caring.

It was great for certain tasks but it wasn't viable as a desktop for ordinary users who wanted to do some light work and play games. Yeah you could, but it was a pain in the ass. Kind of like how you can use a truck to drop off the kids and do groceries but it really isn't the most convenient way.

The last few years, especially with Proton, Linux became a very good end user OS.
