Ubisoft connect problem
Is it this issue? This is for Bottles but I think the problem is the same. See the referenced issue in that one for a solution.

Seems to be a well known bug: https://github.com/bottlesdevs/Bottles/issues/2725

Run hacked sofwares with wine
As long as it's compatible with Wine, it will run. You can use Bottles to manage it. Also Autodesk Maya has a Linux version.
- Passing env vars - Bottles ignores "flatpak override -u"

I'm looking to stop the hopping
Bottles and distrobox should have you covered.

PlayOnLinux (Phoenicis) is back? But confusing which is the current "true one" to install
Should the website www.playonlinux.com indicate the situation more clearly too? Any clarification? What do you think of this "mess"?

Windows 11 vs Linux Privacy
I noticed the Call of Duty series on Steam, so I expect most or all of them will play perfectly fine on Linux Mint in Steam. If you want to play Windows games outside of Steam, there are apps like Lutris and PlayOnLinux that make running Windows games on Linux pretty easy. https://lutris.net/ https://www.playonlinux.com/ https://www.protondb.com/search?q=call%20of%20duty

Is Linux worth for gaming? Which distro do you recommend?
If you will to run a game with Wine, use the release version. You can also use PlayOnLinux (I feel old mentioning this), Lutris, and Bottles (this new one I didn't tested yet).

I don't know what I'm doing. Trying to use wine for my windows softwares. I don't speak blank box.. help
So, I don't use WINE directly. Instead, I use PlayOnLinux, which hides most of the complexity for you. It handles all the WINE stuff on your behalf. It looks like you're using Ubuntu (please remember to include your Linux version in future!), so you can install PlayOnLinux from the standard repositories.

How to install PlayOnLinux?
I believe POL is basically dead, see the repo here: https://github.com/PlayOnLinux/POL-POM-4/commits/master where there were only 10 commits over the last 2 years.

Dear Microsoft, please leave me the hell alone. (Windows 10 Pro)
https://www.playonlinux.com/ is a good resource to get Windows Apps up and running easily and has a compatibility list of most software

Why isn't there a compatibility layer for MAC OS software like there is Windows?
There are also GUI front-ends for WINE. PlayOnLinux has been around for a long time, and Bottles has recently come on the scene. I don't know how to use WINE, but I can use it because of those two apps.

Verified/Playable games but from other stores
If you want to know if a game is playable or not and it doesn't have a linux version, then the best way I know of is looking it up on lutris. You can't look on protondb, because it's only for Steam games. You can also look on wine and playonlinux, but they usually aren't as exhaustive as lutris.

Eternally grateful for the people working on proton, lutris, and wine
I find WINE quite complicated to use, so I use PlayOnLinux, which is a front-end for WINE. Unless you need expert mode, it's way easier to use PlayOnLinux than to have to fiddle with setting up an app directly with WINE.
What are some alternatives?
lutris - Lutris desktop client
protonup - Install and Update Proton-GE
phoenicis - Phoenicis PlayOnLinux and PlayOnMac 5 repository
proton-ge-custom - Compatibility tool for Steam Play based on Wine and additional components
AppImageLauncher - Helper application for Linux distributions serving as a kind of "entry point" for running and integrating AppImages
protontricks - A simple wrapper that does winetricks things for Proton enabled games, requires Winetricks.
Proton-Caller - Run any Windows program through Proton
openrazer - Open source driver and user-space daemon to control Razer lighting and other features on GNU/Linux
dxvk-async - DXVK binaries patched with the shader pipeline patch from Sporif
wine-tkg-git - The wine-tkg build systems, to create custom Wine and Proton builds
