And yes I looked it up and it was the game's fault, elite dangerous odyssey can be fickle even when I had Windows 🤷‍♂️

I’m gonna get shit for it, but gaming on Linux really isn’t great imo.

My experience is that it’s a pain in the arse to get anything running, performance is worse, vsync is fucked, no HDR, doesn’t work with Hue Sync, and then a hundred other miscellaneous problems.

Proton is an incredible achievement from a technical standpoint, and if people are happy to put up with issues to protect their privacy then good on them, but I think people oversell how good the actual Linux gaming experience is.

P.S. I don’t need suggestions on how to fix the issues I listed. I’m more than able to resolve them if I had the time, I just don’t want to have those problems to start with.

Actually, I have had minimal problems overall. The only games I have been unable to play are those with 'Easy Anti Cheat'. But more often than not I can click install on Steam and start playing games first try just like on Windows. I do still check tho on protondb if anyone else has had issues getting the game to work just out of habit.
