The big break through will be when you get many more devices that you can just buy that have steam os.

Have you run into many games that don't work on Proton? I've yet to encounter a single one myself, though I'm sure they exist.
I've played a few that required some tinkering, like changing Proton's version.

Its probly still buggy as fuk. I gave up on it.

I mean, you can* absolutely also set it per game. I only switch over to GE-Proton if there's an issue with a specific game.
You can set the compatibility for all games in the Steam settings. One of the options is "Proton Experimental" which updates automatically and will use the newest version without having to manually select it each time.
That's what I'd like for GE-Proton.

It hasn't been "buggy as fuk" for at least half a decade. Why are you spreading misinformation?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Its my experience. Why do you discount it?
Edit ... no, wait. I recognize cult behaviour. Don't explain. -

Much appreciated.

Been two years since I've touched Windows. Microsoft isn't needed.
Just a few more games are needed and some applications and I'd be good to go as well.

Nice. Saves a step.
Now I wish there were a way to force Proton games to run in Gamescope. I usually add it as a launch option because it makes some games play nicer with the window manager.
I know it can be done with steamtinkerlaunch, but that is still kind of a workaround.
Global launch options would be HUGE

Really the only things I'm still using Windows for are work (even if I replace my workstation with Linux, which I'm working on doing, I still have to manage the Windows servers), and simulator games (peripherals work in Linux but often need extra fussing to get them working correctly so for now I'm just sticking with Windows on that machine)

They are, I don't remember the details but I did something to have global ENV back on proton 4, I'm pretty sure there are plenty of ways now.

It should also be enabled by default for many games that does in fact have Linux native build.
