Just skip over the part where it's 3 percent of games that don't work, not 40.
Also, please explain how your response makes sense in this conversation:
Person: "Linux gaming has gotten really good lately"
You: "Try it without proton" (This implies you think there's something wrong with games running on proton even if they're working)
Me: "Why, proton works?"
You: "It's a substandard experience"
Me: "There's a few games it doesn't run, but for the ones it does how is it substandard?"
You: "Games don't run" (this doesn't address your issues with proton, the games that do run only do so because of proton, without it and wine it'd be a million times worse)
Basically every response of yours seems like you're bitter people like something you don't. Literally every gamer acknowledges anticheat is a problem still, there's no point in discussing it here. Nobody's trying to force you to switch to Linux.
If you want to actually discuss the technical merits and downsides of proton, wine, dxvk, etc. I'm happy to, but if you're just going to be bitter about people enjoying things, please seek out a therapist.
So you agree with me?
No
Then you shouldn't type things that agree with me.
Like 2/3 of your replies fail basic reading comprehension, no rational person would read that and think it's agreeing with you.
But it exactly details all the ways that Linux is insufficient. No. The failure of comprehension is on your side of the bell curve. You might want to pick up a dictionary and find out what the word substandard means and stop deliberately misinterpreting my statements out of belligerence. Or maybe the lack of reading comprehension fits squarely on your shoulders.
