    I wish you answer me one more question. I bought games on steam that later found they’re “Windows only”. I can’t play these games on the steam I installed on my linux pc. I can only play them on the steam of my windows pc.

    Can I play them on linux using Proton? If yes, then this might allow me remove windows from my life completely

      Yep, even if the game is Windows only and you’re a Linux guy, you go into the Steam properties/settings for that game, click on the Compatibility tab, and then check the “Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool”. Chances are the game will work fine, but if it doesn’t you can try some other version of Proton. Alternatively, there is also Wine but I didn’t touch it yet and heard it’s a pain in the a**
