Nvidia had best in class support for linux and freebsd as a result of essentialy using the same driver across all three operaating systems. If you wanted good opengl support they were the only choice 20 years ago! Valve not supporting nvidia gpus at the moment has more to do with SteamOS on ly shipping on the steam deck which uses AMD hardware.

Yeah, if you wanted a low power x86 device (which pretty much means iGPU) then AMD is the only game in town. The open source drivers probably helped in this regard but if things were different I doubt Valve would have turned their nose up at Nvidia.
