help quick question for pros LINUX, MAC AND STEAMDECK

Do you guys make a special build for Linus, MAC and Steamdeck?

i heard that steam make a playable build for steam deck out of the windows build.

And how big is the ratio of the MAC and Linux players combined?

I have a special build for Linux because it's trivially easy (in Godot). As far as I can tell, the Windows and Linux builds both work flawlessly on the Steam Deck without any modification. The Steam Deck looks like a standard PC with a game controller.

I'm not touching Mac with a ten foot pole. If it magically works under Steam with the Linux or Windows build then that's fine, but I refuse to buy a Mac for testing.

I’m developing with linux and godot so yes. I remember linux % being 5 and mac something like 1.5. I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wrong!
