Proton is a fork of Wine with some patches specifically for games. I think Valve contribute the patches back as well but I could be wrong.

Ohh... TIL.

Yeah if Valve helped that would explain why it got better.

Proton is Valve’s fork of Wine. I meant that I think Valve contribute patches back to upstream Wine as well.
