Another fun thing is that for playing older games that use Proton:
It might not run on Linux natively
It might not run on the current version of Windows
It might run on your specific hardware natively in Windows
But somehow, it still manages to run well in Wine/Proton (sometimes better than on Windows)
Yeah, I 100% agree, I have been an exclusive Linux gamer for a few years now. It helps that I do not really play online. Just the other day, it kind of blew my mind when I thought about how far gaming on Linux has come. I think most gamers could switch over to Linux and be just fine.
