It honestly makes me wonder why i keep using windows on my main desktop if proton allows playing most anything i play
It wasn’t always that way, but I’m glad proton is great now!
I only read of the rocky starts, i got mine with the recent steam sale at 10% off for the 64GB. Just need to get it a bigger SSD and I’ll be all set!
I just picked up the corsairs mp600 1tb and an nvme enclosure to clone my drive for about 130 all together.
I used Linux before Steam came to Linux, those were the good old days where every game required tinkering in WINE. I actually didn’t have a Steam account until it came to Linux, and then I played only a handful of Linux-native games (Rocket League was one of them).
When Proton came to Steam, a whole new world opened up, and now I can basically assume a game will work and I’ll be right more often than not.
So from my perspective, it wasn’t a rocky start at all, but a gradual widening of my gaming library. I’ve since played a ton more games, so I’ve rewarded Steam for the effort.
I actually just installed Linux on my gaming PC and it’s mostly been a good experience.
If Linux gets support from Abode so I can ditch Photoshop, I’ll be there.
Honestly I hope the next couple of years see more Proton work for supporting Adobe (legit copies or otherwise heheh) so more users can migrate over.
Inkscape has improved a lot with its newest version and I pray that GIMP will speed up dev soon so maybe that’ll make up for the lack of Adobe stuff
Yeah I want Gimp to be good so bad but I’ve been waiting for like 20 years and it never seems to change…i really want a Photoshop and Lightroom ripoff for Linux.
Darktable is pretty neat, but i only edit photos of my dogs and gatherings of friends and family tbh, so it could lack a lot of what lightroom does and i’d never know.
It’s compatible with adobes .dng so you should be able to get usable raws from almost every digital camera with the dng converter in wine, if your cameras raw format is not supported.
