  Same here, the only games that don’t work are the ones that’s ship with anti cheats the behave like root kits (I really nasty type of malware).

      No, 99% of multiplayer games work perfectly fine, the only 2 I know of that have rootkit anti cheats are rainbow 6 siege and Valerant

        I’m curious about this number, where does it come from? Certainly not here

  In my experience, most games either don’t work at all (very rare), or work 99% as well as on Windows. For instance, I’m playing Hitman WoA right now, and opening the Steam overlay makes the game run in slow motion until I restart it, and it goes in the single-digit FPS if my laptop is charging. Very rarely does a game runs better on Linux than Windows.

    Never encountered this issue you have, by any chance on Linux you are using a old version of proton or nvidia GPU?

      I’m on a Intel/nVidia dual-GPU laptop.

        Could be crashing on alt tab if PC tries to switch to iGpu for DE?

        Nvidia is likely the problem

  Same. I think 80% of my pre existing library already worked and then every game ive bought since the switch runs perfect. I used to check protondb first, now I just yolo and add my report later.
