    Are you on Windows or Linux on the 16?

      Windows 11. I want to play games without having to think about how to get it to work.

        Just curious. Proton takes all of that effort out of the equation, plus I’m willing to bet there aren’t as many driver problems, if there are any at all.

          Proton can make games from the windows store that I already own work on Linux? Proton can make games that are borked rated on protondb work?

          I love Linux as much as the next tech nerd, I have a SteamDeck that I essentially use as a laptop when away from home, and I tried dailying Manjaro on my main machine for a couple months. Proton doesn’t solve everything.

          I can totally understand running windows on your main gaming machine, as that’s what I do. I don’t like it, but all of my games work. I also don’t want to have to re-buy games on Steam that I own via the Windows store.
