    Yep, I am a Linux user and a Linux gamer, Tim Sweeney being a huge dick about Linux gaming while Valve has done a ton to help definitely is the main reason.

    I am embarrassed though, I got so tired of still fighting with Linux gaming that I built a hypervisor and I run windows as a vm to game 😞.

      I mean, you probably take a performance hit vs. Proton, but it’s still a valid way of making it work.

        I got GPU passthrough working and bought beefy hardware so it feels nice and smooth :)

        It was worth it though to be able to play with my windows friends without telling them I’d try to make it run on proton
