And this right here is yet another proof why nothing comes close to win32 in the desktop OS space when it comes to game preservation. I mean I appreciate all the effort with sdl12-compat, but afaiu old SDL games have to be hand picked and manually adapted to SDL2 in order to run properly.
Granted, I occasionally play some of those old ones I like, but still.

* Flatpak
* PireWire by default
* Libinput for both Wayland and Xorg
* Wayland by default
* Bolt
That's just a quick list off the top of my head
To add to your 69 list:- AMDGPU (eff Catalyst)
- Steam on Linux
- Mantle/Vulkan/RADV
- The entire gaming on Linux revolution
- Mesa and FOSS driver advancements
- OpenZFS
- LZ4
- Zstd
- Rust
- bcachefs
- Filesystem advancements need their own list...
A lot of neat stuff that everyone relies on has been released since 2010....RHEL 6....especially if you were an AMD user. That was a magical decade to be an AMD user.
