It is also just one of the worst cloud storage services compared to Dropbox or Seafile

Ah yes, something that creates an even bigger headache for playing games is exactly what I need...
Proton is actually really good now
Idk about that. I put Linux on a second drive in my main PC a couple months ago and tried a handful of games, I don't think I got any of them to work.
I know I tried baldurs gate 3, The Forest, and I think Satisfactory.
I'm sure that someone is going to call me an idiot for not being able to figure it out, but the point of the parent comment was that Proton is "really good now", implying it shouldn't be a headache, and if it takes more than 5 minutes for a game to simply launch that's exactly what it is.
I do believe you but it's getting to the point that it's the same or not as cumbersome as Windows.
Of course, you already have Windows and you are used to the nuances so you stay with it. But the nuances are still there, you can't do anything about them and there are more every year.
For me, the worst part is that you (and I) paid for it, and if you go an complain they tell you to eat dicks. So, I switched long time ago but dual booted for gaming until Proton became a thing.
If you need help setting your games, hit me/us the community up we will help.
This isn’t really about the user getting used to nuances, it’s about the games getting used to them. People complain when a game doesn’t work instantaneously on Windows too.
Plus, going off the latest Steam survey, people mostly play their own weird and obscure games with only some hundreds of players. So much of the time, searching for game support is not going to give any results because they might be the only Linux player.
That’s not even getting into how much setup annoyance there is if one of your choice games isn’t on Steam.
