I feel like not wanting to do the work for certain Steam games is what keeps me on windows for my personal use (work makes the decision on my work machine).
I know it’s possible, I just don’t want to do the work
How is it for racing sims ? Last time I checked it didn’t look too good in terms of wheel drivers and games running ootb on Linux, or did I just not look in the right places?
Go to protondb.com and search for the games you’re interested in. If your profile is public, I think you can import your entire library and browse through it instead of manually searching for each individual game. Ideally you want “platinum” compatibility but I’ve personally never had problems with “gold” games either.
No worries, I had already given up on it for now I was just curious if someone could convince me to fully switch, or rather point me towards some open source projects I could use.
Right now I boot into win11 for gaming and into fedora for everything else.
Thanks anyway!

No judgement for your choices, but just so you know, it’s basically no work for the majority of games.

I’m sorry, as much as I’d love to, I don’t have an answer to this.
edit: corrected a word.

With the exception of any major games that have anti-cheat. I miss League of Legends.
Yeah, anti-cheat and the Ubisoft launcher have been the only consistent obstacles. protondb.com is a fantastic resource, though.
I’m not a fan of LoL, so I can’t say from personal experience, but it looks like PlayOnLinux claims to support it. Hope you find your joy!
I wouldn’t say “any” major games. Helldivers 2 is a notable exception.
I’ve played Helldivers 2 with no obstacles and no additional setup.
That’s what I’m saying. It has anticheat, and it runs on Linux without issue.
Ah, I apologize. I definitely was not fully awake when I read your original comment.
No worries, I may have just been unclear considering multiple people appear to have downvoted my comment.
