ocs. Disabling DirectX12 is going to give you a pretty good success rate of making a game work if it doesn't work out of the box. Here's a useful resource for understanding the settings. Use this before you ask the AI: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom Also, let's be clear about what those rankings mean on ProtonDB Native: Just works i.e. Devs are cool Platinum: Just works (but is using Proton) i.e. Valve has got this shit handled Gold: Works but you either need to use proton experimental or change an option that someone has already figured out. i.e. Community has figured it out, Valve is tweaking. Note that many people are on Proton Experimental by default so possibly that's why it "just works" for them. Silver: Very likely to work with a setting someone has listed. i.e. Community and Valve working on it Bronze: People are figuring it out, leave it to your friends that know Linux i.e. Sorry, you're probably out of luck. Leave it to the tinkerers Borked: Publisher is actively working against the community. i.e. EA hates you I'm not trying to say everything works on Linux. It doesn't. But let's also not pretend that it is worse than it is. That's the same error in the other direction. Linux is not the right choice for everyone, but it is a good choice for many people. You're implying that 'clicking the cog icon > properties > and then copy pasting some text into a text box' is overly burdensome. To be frank, if you believe that then not only is Linux not for you, but neither are computers, and I really really am curious why you're on a website called "Hacker News".

Steam, and the few games I play on it just work like normal. For games from places Like GOG, Lutris works far more often than not. If I recall correctly, it’s literally just a matter of running the .exe Most of my other programs are installed as flatpacks, which I would recommend. Note that Nobara is not currently an immutable distro (like Bazzite). Like windows, you’ll likely want to reinstall it in a few years (or after some failed project) to start “fresh”. For my NAS boxes, I use Proxmox, which I guess is mostly Debian with a Ubuntu kernel and select packages kept more up to date and a built in web UI. Proxmox is nice because its kernel (even the opt in newer kernels that can be offered on the forums) is kept in sync with ZFS which I use for my archives. I disable High Availability, among other things. Useful links: https://free-pmx.org/guides/ https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/ Biggest gotcha with proxmox is if it seems to have lost internet access (like the webUI suddenly not working), your network device got changed/renamed due to a kernel update. You’ll need physical/KVM access to update the entry in /etc/network/interfaces with the new active network device name. Also if you install on a ZFS root, proxmox uses system-boot and silently ignores classic grub settings.

ValveSoftware/. The development of Proton, their in-house compatibility layer that uses Wine under the hood, is also open source and developed with community involvement. Single hardware platform makes it easier to handle the morass of driver development. They upstream their changes to other projects. There are actually open source forks of things like Proton (https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom is a popular one).

rovements from kernel changes probably don't hurt either. 0: Requires unreleased proton-ge build: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/pull/104...
