Since when are linux users "famously considered cheapstakes"? I was under the impression it's quite the opposite!

Of course, all generalizations are just that. But if anything, the linux gaming community has many passionate people more than willing to pay for games on their platform.

Most game developers don't port/build for linux due to the lower market share. A way simpler explanation that obeys basic market rules.

OTOH I know more than a fair share of people who exclusive pirate all the games they play on Windows. I also don't know many people who bought a license to windows itsellf.
