Huh. Cause when we're sticking to the topic... Steam and Linux... I can honestly say that with exception of less than a dozen games that won't run with Proton, everything else has been exactly the same, if not BETTER, than running games within Windows. Fall Guys has EAC which will never run in Linux. So there's no point in even trying. Games like Katamari Reroll have more problems in native Windows than they did on Linux, so I actually end up with a better gaming experience in Linux. As far as Steam goes, it's the same as Windows once you enable Proton. Click "Install." People talk about hassle as if their experience 5 years ago is still the modern use case. Lack of decent working drivers isn't limited to Linux either. I remember nVidia dropping driver support for the 2xx series GeForce cards... and being unable to run games on my GTX 275 in Windows because I'd always end up with out of memory errors. That problem went away when I switched to Linux. The meme of how you have to cut and paste stuff into terminal to get things working hasn't been the Linux reality for some time. Your precious time is mostly safe these days.
