There was never a chance in hell that AAA games are natively coming to Linux. I rather have them now with a compatibility layer and gain some market space, we'll go from there then
Not at the current market share, sure, but Microsoft is doing a lot to alienate people with new restrictions slowly being built in. Vulkan being good helps too, but now thanks to proton there's no need to move from d3d12 to Vulkan, which is kinda sad.
Either there's proton and people can play or there is no proton and no linux users and no steam deck. This is a thing where you need to recognize you can't win
