What is the state of raytracing on Linux. Does it work on new games that are released with raytracing.

Does the game have to be native or does it work through Proton?

Is the performance comparable? Better? Worse?

Is it only working for AMD? Only for Nvidia? Both? (Neither?)

Yeah I'm mainly concerned about if Wayland doesn't support rt/dlss or has slower drivers and proton migrating to Wayland ends up being a net negative. If they work in Wayland it should be fine

I'm no authority on any of this. But from what I think I understand I can tell you that you don't need to worry about this. RT/DLSS won't work any different or worse when games are going to run on native Wayland.
