Even gamers nexus’ Steve today said that they’re about to start doing Linux games performance testing soon. It’s happening, y’all, the year of the Linux desktop is upon us. ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

Edit: just wanted to clarify that Steve from GN didn’t precisely say they’re starting to test soon, he said they will start WHEN the steam OS releases and is adopted. Sorry about that.

    I’m not sure if you’re reading my messages but I’m saying I’m not sure how to do Proton outside of Lutris and Steam. And that CLI outside of a launcher sounds more convenient, but gave Lutris instructions for someone running a game not from Steam.

      okay, that is different, sorry.

      for that

      step 1. install wine-tkg

      step 2. right click a .exe > properties, set wine-tkg as the default

      left click on .exe’s to open

      done

        I know Wine, even better Wine-GE, but they’re not Proton qua performance.

          wine-tkg lets you use all the proton patches, which is why i suggested it, making it identical to proton essentially.
