Asus ROG Ally review: it’s time to stop pretending Windows is the answer
Here are some numbers I've extracted from ProtonDB:

Visible impact by the Steam Deck in ProtonDB data
About a year ago I've written a custom set of scripts to parse the public data from ProtonDB locally generating visual graphs to see how relative progress is moving. Today I updated the graphs again which I didn't since February and the launch of the Steam Deck made quite an impact in the ratings.

Is Proton now the all cure to PC Gaming On Linux or we not 99% there yet?
Here is the source for the numbers: https://gitlab.com/TheJackiMonster/protondb-evalute (I wrote a little Python script some time ago. ^^)

More than 400 Titles Ready (Verified and Playable) for the Steam Deck
From statistics we can actually expect to have similar compatibility across all the Linux distributions. ProtonDB states that from all reported/tested games, about 66% is recommended by at least one to be playable. The amount of playable and verified games (the sum of both) by Valve is also about 66% of their tested games. When you rank all reports on ProtonDB with a sensible metric, you will also get about 66% reported as playable (I have actually written a Python script to do just that).

Proton Has Enabled 7000 Windows Games on Linux
The number is definitely accurate. I have written a script in the past to evaluate the protondb-data which is publicly available at Github. The script will categorize newer reports into the old categories and provides an overall category from the most given one by all reports to a specific game.

Linux Gaming Predictions for 2021, with 11 guests including Chris Were, HexDSL, Corben Dallas, and more!
Wine/Proton will definitely improve. We are currently at about 62% (I checked via this tool) compatibility overall. So guessing it will increase to about 70% (even without working anti-cheat) is a good estimate.

A New Era for Mixed Reality
The "Metaverse" is a complete joke, and among gamers, Valve has a way better reputation than Meta. Why would they want to dilute that brand?
They already have their own platform (Steam), OS (SteamOS), VR headset (Index), their own Windows translation layer (Proton, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton), their own partnership with cloud gaming (Steam Cloud Play using GeForce Now , https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/cloudgaming), etc.
IMO: As someone with thousands of games on Steam, there's no way in hell I'd want that linked to Facebook. I think they eventually removed the requirement to have a FB account to use a Quest, but they still require a Meta account. Yuck.
This reeks of Facebook recognizing the Metaverse as the failure that it was and opening it up because it's no longer relevant...

NTFS messes up
Did you mount it with the correct flags?

How do I use multiple hard drives on Kubuntu for steam?
there is a hack to try and use your existing windows game install from an NTFS drive, but i don't recommend it as steam will try to save file names that are not allowed on NTFS...plus ext4 is faster.

Game crashes within 10 seconds of launching unless I reinstall from scratch
From a quick search, here's what I found. It looks like you're encountering some common issues that can occur with games running on Linux through Proton, especially with the recent updates to games like Satisfactory that might affect compatibility. The log entries you're seeing related to D3DCompile2 failing to compile shader and the issues with Ternary operator and LinearToSrgbBranching not being defined, suggest that there's a problem with shader compilation. This can often be related to the version of Proton or the graphics drivers you are using. Some users have reported that the game does launch with the -vulkan option but with graphical glitches and lower performance, which indicates that the Vulkan renderer is working but possibly not optimally on your setup. From the discussions in the community, users have suggested ensuring that the latest drivers for your graphics card are installed and, if using an Intel GPU, that the Mesa drivers are up to date since Intel XeSS references were found in the logs. If you're using NVIDIA graphics, make sure you have the latest drivers and possibly set the PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% to enable DLSS if you're under Vulkan. If you're using an Optimus laptop with both Intel and NVIDIA GPUs, make sure your Optimus setup is correctly configured. Some users have found success by specifying DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAMES=GeForce to force the game to use the NVIDIA GPU. It's also worth noting that if you're encountering issues with DirectX 11, you might want to try forcing the game to use DirectX 10 if possible or look into DXVK configurations that could resolve compatibility issues. Lastly, if none of these solutions work, you could try running a trace with apitrace to gather more detailed logs that might point to the specific issue. If you're still stuck, it would be a good idea to report the issue to the Proton GitHub page or seek further assistance in the game's community forums where others might have encountered and solved similar issues. For more information and to find others who might have resolved similar issues, check out the community discussions on GitHub, Steam Community, and the DXVK GitHub page.
