With the advances in gaming on Linux in recent years, it is so tempting to switch full time. I would absolutely love to, but I am a Game Pass Ultimate subscriber and it is where I play a lot of my games on PC. I know you can use the cloud version, but I cannot stomach streaming games in their current state, so it is a no go. A large portion of my Steam library is compatible, but anytime I have done an install I end up giving in and going back to Windows for games.

    To add context Valve can’t Legally add support for h264 in proton, but GE-proton is a community project not maintained by valve

      They can’t legally add it at all due to licensing restrictions, or they have chosen not to pay for a license?

        Honestly I don’t know the details there, something about copyrighted code preventing a commercial solution? That’s as far as I understand it anyway
