Even some of the biggest games from Valve don’t support MacOS (see Counterstrike 2), so why isn’t Apple trying to get more developers to support Mac yet?

The problem is that developers don't develop for Mac because they would sell extremely less than the Windows version. It's a dog eating its tail, people don't buy Macs because they cost too much and there are no games, so developers don't develop. The only way to break the cycle would be for Apple to start selling high-performance Macs for €800, and for high-performance Macs I mean Macs with GPUs comparable to a 4060 at least, after all, counterparts can be found at that price with these specifications.
