Please report back :)
Any satisfying results?
Nope. Worse performance. It’s better to just run the steam exe through whisky, although it’s only good for older games.
IMHO the M1 chip with 16 GB RAM would be perfect for gaming if you could just plug in an external thunderbolt graphics card.
Thanks for reporting back!
It will probably be worse performance. That they made it work at all is pretty cool.
Steam on Linux however should do mean less fiddling with Wine configuration.
Has anyone managed to get that working? I get a permission error when trying to run the Steam wrapper
