So once everything is setup, I install Albert, Firefox, DarkTable, Inkscape, 3d Slicers, and Steam. In steam, I installed the handful of Linux native games but was a little disappointed in the number. Then I was talking with my son about Proton and decided to look into it a bit more. HOLY SHIT, IT’S JUST A FLAG IN STEAM!!! Basically it’s Settings->Properties->Compatability… then toggle “Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool.” Then I was just able to install Windows games under Linux. They run just like any other Steam game. There’s a website that lists compatibility: https://www.protondb.com/ but so far everything I’ve tried to run works fine. So if you run Linux and Game at all, check this out.
this made me giggle so hard :D
yes Steam and Proton is really a Gabe Send, so to speak.
Secure Boot is bullshit and for Microsofts illegitimate interests anyways.
