I'd argue "mainstream gaming" should mean all the most popular multiplayer titles, since they pull the biggest chunk of the total gamer base. And that means Linux is not ready for mainstream gaming. LoL, Roblox, PUBG, Valorant, Battlefield, R6S. These don't work on Linux. I think posts like these are very misleading, as some people will think that all these popular multiplayer titles will work fine on Linux.
