All these threads make me want to take the leap to Linux. My work laptop runs on Mint, but as for my home pc… guess I’ll still have to wait for more Proton development/compatibility.
Last time I checked, part of the games I want to play soon (Remnant 2, Supervive, Legion TD 2, Morimens, Sengoku Dynasty, Ravenswatch and a few others) seem to require a little more experimentation than I’d like.
Don’t get me wrong, as a modder of obscure Chinese games and at work, I’m all for experimenting. But for the 1h per day I can play, I’ll wait until I’m quite sure I won’t spend it tinkering around to get my current games to work.
I have heard of absolutely none of those games. Looking at protondb, it’s a mixed bag of miscellaneous hassle. Supervive actually has a message that reads “wine, proton, and steam deck are not supported by this application”. Legion TD seems like you have to pray to RNG-sus. Dynasty has no reports at all… For the issues people are having with some of these, aside from supervive just blocking wine entirely, it is indeed more janky tinkering than I could justify doing myself, let alone expecting anyone else to.

But I sure hope it will be sooner than later!

All these toxic community threads do is push me away from Linux before I become as insufferable as them.
Windows has its flaws, but at least it doesn’t have an annoying fanbase.
