has Valve releasing updates like crazy for proton making it easier and easier to use Linux for gaming.

It quite ridiculous how far it has come. I remember trying out ubuntu years ago and being incredibly disappointed with how few games were compatible. Nowadays I'm running a dual boot LMDE/Win 10. Probably 80% of my games work right out of the box, and the other 20% I can just switch over within a minute or so.

I am still a little disappointed at the lack of mod manager compatibility for some games, but it no longer feels like a deal breaker for me.
