Let’s not forget that Valve released a Linux port for TF2 in 2012, released their native client in 2013, released SteamOS in 2013 and in the end ported nearly all their games to linux. It didn’t start with Proton.

But Humble Bundle pushed ports before that, because games had to have a Linux port in order to get into the bundle.
