  Not all functionality is perfectly replicated, so the user experience depends on the application being used. I use it semi-regularly for quite a number of years and (consequently) various versions of Wine to run (a near current version of) LTspice. That works perfectly as far as I can tell, but it is my understanding that the maintainer of LTspice puts in some effort to assure compatibility with the then current version of Wine.

  As a Russian I do feel a little bit of pride whenever people complain about something like this. Not hugely proud because you're using it in a negative light, but still proud nevertheless :)

  In my experience most games that don't use an anti-hack just work (probably around 95%). Occasionally a bit of tweaking is needed. * Probably the biggest pain point for me are game launchers that use Edge WebView 2. But many games allow you to bypass the launcher. * For DOS Games run native DOSBox and not the Windows Version inside Wine/Proton * Install the games on a native Linux partition. Having the wine prefix on NTFS will cause weird issues. * Use a tool like Heroic Launcher or Lutris for non-steam games. Especially for GOG games. Applications on the other hand have problems far more often. Some don't work at all, others have bugs and limitations.
