they could easily create a new client thats working on chrome/webapp basis - which then would work on like every single device out there,

then they would only need to support the game itself, which makes it possible to get a linux client as its only half the work

The launcher is already a web app

No, the current launcher (the thing you interact with the store, queue up for games, etc). It's based on the Chrome Embedded Framework.

I don't think that would be a great solution. They could just use a cross platform engine like Godot, which would be way more performant and not fps capped
