As everyone know, Windows 10 support is ending very soon, and here i am having a very old hardware that couldn’t support win11. So my choice now is either:...
It’s really good from a compatibility perspective (i.e. most games at least will run) but there are still a few performance edge cases that have more to do with Linux than proton itself. For example, ray tracing for AMD performs significantly worse than on Windows unfortunately (I get ~45 FPS for CP2077 on my 9070 XT vs ~55 FPS on Windows with the same settings). Rasterization is a different story, and some games actually outperform Windows in this area. Another area which is a little annoying is dealing with games that require extra related programs running alongside them. I run Microsoft Flight Simulator (which performs great using proton) however it is a little tedious getting all the add-on software to start inside the same proton prefix, the same story is true for dealing with mod managers in other games.

All of them, but especially V. I have tried a few times to play them but never get more than a few missions in before losing interest in the story. I think I have to like or identify with a protagonist to enjoy a game, and most GTA characters are pretty unlikable.

Great take, I wish more would see the music industry like this as well.
I used to pay for Spotify premium then realized that I hardly added more than a handful of new things to my “library” each month. I switched to budgeting the same monthly funds towards building a local library from direct purchases and bandcamp.
It really depends on your level of consumption of new content whether a subscription service makes sense.
