@boilingsteam I love Proton and how much Linux gaming has improved, but by god, when you have a 10x card and want to play Spider-Man, it's still best to use dual-booting, sorry not sorry. :p

@boilingsteam I still have a Windows partition. In my defense tho, I hardly use it nowadays. The only reason I still have it is for multiplayer games that don't work on Linux because of anti-cheat (Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant, etc), and usually I just try to push my friends to just play something else (like Apex or Overwatch).

@boilingsteam Oh I could, but I don't plan for at least another year or two. It still serves its purposes and I can play every game I want to quite smoothly. But yes, the gap between native Windows and Proton is expanding.

@hj @boilingsteam I can't wait for the day we'll be able to play some Beat Saber on Linux.

@tangeek @boilingsteam i think beat saber actually runs decently on linux, as most games do. Haven't tried it myself yet, i can say that Alyx runs great but H3VR chugs at 2fps
