Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Left 4 Dead 2 has been updated to DXVK 2.0
DXVK 2.0 has upstreamed the dxvk-native code, meaning the game runs using native Linux libraries but uses DX11 with DXVK. This is mostly done because the ancient OpenGL linux-native renderer was rather bad.

Portal 2 and Half-Life 2 issue
what works best is games supporting dxvk-native: https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/dxvk-native
- Some games play so well with Proton that it offends me they don't release a native build
-
Clip Control on the Apple GPU
There is DXVK native which doesn't require wine.

DirectX is the reason we still need wine and proton?
There are also Dxvk native for porting game to Linux. Which is used by valve to port it's game to Linux.(replacing togl)

Very High VAR spikes on CSGO
I disagree, but I get the frustration. It's just that I've been playing CS:GO for almost a decade, and while I think the game is neglected by Valve in general, it's way a worse scenario on Linux. For instance, Vulkan support (via dxvk-native) was added back in December last year, and it's not been updated ever since, so you get way worse stuttering when compared to OpenGL (which is actually a DirectX 9 to OpenGL translation layer, called toGL, which has its own set of bugs and issues); Plus, you can't change screen resolution when using Vulkan. I get some occasional little stutters on Windows as well, but the whole CS:GO experience is honestly just way worse on Linux, unfortunately.
- What API or program would you like to see re-implemented on top of another platform?

OpenBSD Gaming Updates Q2 2022
DXVK-Native and the game Perimeter. Perimeter is the one game I know of that's opensource and that uses DXVK-Native. I got it to run, but there was no support for any audio, making this pretty unexciting. This is still being worked on upstream, so maybe a DXVK-native port later and a port of perimeter will happen then...

Is Proton now the all cure to PC Gaming On Linux or we not 99% there yet?
You never mentioned that requirement, but here you go: https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/dxvk-native

which should I click?
DirectX isn't an option on linux/mac anyway, it's just launch or safe mode. (Note to any SCS developers if they're lurking around here... please implement the DX pipeline into the linux build so we can use DXVK-Native, it's much faster than OGL!)
What are some alternatives?
dinputto8 - A dll module that is designed to improve compatibility in games using DirectInput 1-7 (dinput.dll) by converting all API calls to their equivalent DirectInput 8 (dinput8.dll) ones. This allows older games to be able to use newer tools and wrappers written for DirectInput 8.
Dota-2-Vulkan - Tracker for issues specific to the Vulkan version of Dota 2 on Windows, Linux, and macOS
dxwrapper - Fixes compatibility issues with older games running on Windows 10/11 by wrapping DirectX dlls. Also allows loading custom libraries with the file extension .asi into game processes.
steam-runtime - A runtime environment for Steam applications
d3d8to9 - A D3D8 pseudo-driver which converts API calls and bytecode shaders to equivalent D3D9 ones.
d8vk - Direct3D 8 to Vulkan translation for DXVK!
dxvk - Vulkan-based implementation of D3D9, D3D10 and D3D11 for Linux / Wine
bgfx - Cross-platform, graphics API agnostic, "Bring Your Own Engine/Framework" style rendering library.
UnityPy - UnityPy is python module that makes it possible to extract/unpack and edit Unity assets
OpenBSD-Games-Database - Database of games that run on OpenBSD
ports - Read-only git conversion of OpenBSD's official cvs ports repository. Pull requests not accepted - send diffs to the ports@ mailing list.
