single handedly making linux a viable gaming platform for the casual user

Well, not really single-handedly. Most of the work was done by open source communities, Valve's part was mostly in integrating it and normalizing it, making it easy for users and giving developers an incentive to support it. They did their part and I love them for it, but I'm also grateful for all the volunteer contributions to projects like wine and dxvk!

Oh yes the community laid the bricks but as we seen with linux desktop its the easy to use part thst actually gets users to go there.

After using lutris I very much appreciate valves huge effort that makes you forget what OS you are on since you just click play and have a good time. Where hardcore, extreme tweaking is selecting another proton from a dropdown menu. I don't even know prefixes existed until I was forced to use lutris. In my experience it seems OS communty made games run on linux so OS and linux hobbyists can play games easily. Valve made it so regular folks can play games easily. I patiently await more people to come over to linux so that I can use my hotas as well.
