Windows Finally Catches Up to Linux

Text on the meme

microsoft developers using SteamOS running Windows-native games through compatibility layers AS A BENCHMARK for their new Windows K2 optimizations is one of the funniest fucking things to happen thus far in this current iteration of the OS war For gaming, Microsoft views steamOS as the benchmark, and is working to optimize the platform so that steamOS and Windows gaming performance are comparable. Within the next year or two, it believes that Windows will be able to truly compete head-to-head with steamOS in gaming performance on identical hardware due to foundational changes that are being made to the platform in the coming months. someday, windows may finally catch up to linux at running windows games

What it means

A screenshot of an English-language social media post jokes that Microsoft is using SteamOS as the benchmark for improving Windows gaming performance. The punchline is that Windows may someday merely catch up to Linux at running Windows games, reversing the usual expectation that Windows is the dominant gaming platform.
