Are previously downloaded Steam games transferable from Windows to Linux? - eviltoast

I’ve backed up many of the Steam games I had installed in Windows. Am I able to use these on Linux or do I need to re-download them?

    I’m guessing symlinking the compatdata folder to a Linux friendly filesystem, like Valve recommends here, would probably fix issues like that. I’m sure there must be edge cases but, in my admittedly not extensive experience, I haven’t encountered any myself.
