If you run games with Steam on Linux, it will probably use Proton, which uses Wine. It allows thousands of games to be click & play now on Linux now. See: https://www.protondb.com/
It’s gotten significantly better since ~2010 or so when I was first struggling with it. Valve developing Proton on top of it definitely didn’t hurt even if that in particular is more games focused.
I haven’t run a Linux machine in years. Has wine improved or was I just not savvy enough to get things to run on it?

I still get excited launching steam on Linux.

Wine has gotten pretty good, but mostly for games rather than traditional applications.
