Valve first came up with the Steam Hardware Survey more than 20 years ago because it wanted to know what specs it should target for Half-Life 2 (www.pcgamer.com)

I'd say less shitty and just more fragmented.

Indie games releasing on tiny little sites out there across the web, like how independent authors release on small publishers websites.

Linux (as a gaming platform) would be fucking toast, though. You could hope for some of the efforts from the Raspberrypi and emulation community on that front, but not AAA.
