Wasn't the Glorious Eggroll guy supposed to stop developing GE Proton in favor of a different, better way of doing it? I forget the specifics but I remember seeing that posted several months ago.

EDIT: found it, it's ULGWL, since renamed to "umu". Anybody know if that's still happening? I was under the impression that the guy was going to eventually drop Proton GE completely for umu. But maybe I misunderstood.

Proton-GE is a custom distribution of Proton with its own patches applied.

umu is a script/launcher that makes it easier running Proton without Steam.

So these projects work together, not against each other.
