Its like the Epic Games Store supporting Linux, or [any website] supporting dark mode. You'd think its an easy to implement bare minimum that everyone asks for, but its like pulling teeth to actually get it done.

Linux is basically impossible to support. Valve pulled it off by shipping a complete copy of Ubuntu 12.02 with Steam.
<Platform> is basically impossible to support. <Company> pulled it off by shipping a complete copy of the Chromium browser with <Product> and turning it into a web application.
In any case I don't see how this is materially different from Windows where it's the norm for every game to ship its own libraries and install various redistributables to function.
Where does Valve use Ubuntu? SteamOS is Arch.
