they’d get way more of my money.

Which they'd better invest into improving the Linux technology stack, just like Valve does.

That's not a requirement, my only requirement is that playing their games on Linux is a good experience.

I'd probably keep buying many games through Steam because:

  • GOG doesn't have everything I want to play
  • GOG probably wouldn't work as nicely on my Steam Deck

But if GOG worked well on my desktop, I'd prefer buying games from them when they have it and the experience is smooth.
