It's almost like they're trying to make people switch to Linux and kill PC gaming altogether. Luckily gaming on Linux has come pretty far.

I really wish the anticheat co.panies would get their stuff working on Linux. I know anticheats aren't 100% effective but they are necessary, if you think it's bad with them imagine without.

Which anticheats aren't working in proton? Iirc the major ones work.

At least 132 games that theoretically should work, but because of bad/broken implementation don't, and 28 games where the linux community has been told explicitly to f- off.

That's just a list of games not worth playing /s

I was a late switcher as I had to wait for gaming support. Once I saw what the steam deck was doing and how amazing proton is, I pulled the trigger. It gets better all the time too, sounds like Nvidia users are finally gonna be getting proper Wayland in like less than a month too! It's been so smooth I was able to convince my wife to use it too. She LOVES Minecraft and after I showed her Prism Launcher she was sold.
