Rosenzweig, known for her Panfrost and Apple M1/M2 GPU driver work is now contracted by Valve to work on graphics driver development! Sounds like great news for Valve's push for Linux gaming.

It feels a bit weird to call the contributions to other distros indirect considering that the software that they have worked on and influenced are not SteamOS-exclusive afaik. Any distro can use it. Since it's free for any distro to utilize and take advantage of, wouldn't that basically be directly contributing to Linux distros?
