"Proton" has done wonders for Linux gaming.
Today I found out you can't filter for native linux titles in your steam library anymore. Valve's Hubris has wasted a lot of my girlfriend's time thinking that a compatibility layer yoinked from the community for windows games is "native". It is almost like they want people to think "Linux" is buggy shitware because they rushed a hardware project out to market filling in all the tech gaps with community passion projects and duct tape.

Wine setup correctly with all the bells and whistles is great, but treating it like "native" and denying it has an impact on people when most games have at least *performance issues* under Wine, if they work at all, makes the platform look bad as a whole. Linux isn't bootleg windows simulator, you can actually make games and ship for it, and a growing number actually do have Linux native ports! Let me see them! I hate how Valve treats them in comparison to a flood of legacy games and new shitware games that don't run consistently.

Obviously fuck Valve for so many other reasons, but *this* really pissed me off today. Thanks for the "Just Breaks" experience GabeN
