This kind of heavily biased statements of highly regarded developers are making me sad.
Especially since they have quite some influence, not only judging by the follower count.
I tell you: We will hear more of this whining when Valve starts convincing lots of new developers
to release for SteamOS/Linux.
Of course, if you don't share the love for a platform you might find lots of anecdotal evidence
to present that the platform is crap. But this is actually true for any platform, isn't it?

It's also worth considering that a lot people have problems with games on Windows, and those problems aren't neccesarily related to problems with the game code. In many cases it's because of other problems in the system.
If Linux is in working condition, it's in working condition.
If Windows is in working condition, soon it won't be and you can't stop it, only fix it.
Developers should stop pretending like Windows is problem free.
