I’ve been debating making the switch for a long time, but after spending like a week researching Proton, Lutris etc. on Linux, I decided to try it out and nuked my entire Windows 11 drive. :)

So far, every game I threw at it works perfectly fine, including Elden Ring & Cyberpunk.

I had to spend a little time troubleshooting some small issues but it’s part of the fun!

Specs are in the neofetch, my compositor / WM is Wayfire (Wayland) :)

    Just a heads up, Eve works but it’s pretty flaky. It’s working better then it was a few months ago but I still can’t play more then maybe 15-30 min before it just totally crashes. A lot of time when leaving stations it freezes for awhile and a lot of the game assets don’t seem to always render in. Sometimes opening the menus or settings crashes it, for some reason opening the map and selecting jump points is really bad about causing freezing. Trying it again about a week ago I lost a ship because the game froze then crashed mid fight and when I managed to get back in my ship was destroyed.

      That’s not really playable then when the risks are as high as they are in Eve. Thanks for the heads-up.
