Basically Valve are doing with Steam OS and Proton against Windows, the same thing that Google did with Chrome against Internet Explorer. Microsoft's usual tactic with Embrace Extend Extinguish isn't working with Edge, as Chrome just has great development velocity and market entrenchment and distribution. Crossing my fingers that Valve will pull off the same thing. In the gaming market Valve have great distribution and they are strong developers, so maybe.
