He probably didn't even bother to try Proton
Just played games on Linux for the first time. It's way easier than I originally thought since Proton is integrated into Steam client. Can even run non-Steam games through Steam client but had to use protontricks to add dependencies like Visual C++ redistributables.

Modding Question
ALSO if a mod has some kind of external dependency, like if it specifically mentions needing VisualC or .NET Runtime, Protontricks will be a lifesaver for installing these into Proton prefixes. Might not need it often, but could come in handy to know anyways.

Will there ever be any linux support?
I'm learning a bit more about Proton. You can install Protontricks and then run protontricks 824270 and it should install stuff for you.

Techniques to Get DX9 Games Working, The Maw in Particular?
That might be a problem, you could try to install native d3dx9 and xact to the game's wine prefix using winetricks or protontricks. I'd try d3dx9 on it's own first.

Modern BPM Steam with Ubuntu 20.04?
I assume that this is because I'm still using ye olde steamos-compositor (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steamos-compositor/.) I'm interested in switching to gamescope (https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope) but I'm getting the feeling it won't work on my 20.04 vintage Ubuntu; the required version of meson isn't available and I can't find a PPA that contains gamescope. My instinct act this point is to just live with the pain, as fully dealing with this will likely involve just switching all the way to Arch to more closely match the newest SteamOS and I just don't want to do that right now. Anyone know if there is a middleground that will support a modern steam big picture mode without having to totally redo everything?

"An image of SteamOS 3 leaked and people are already getting it running on other portable consoles. Steam itself is just the same Linux client with a different view (it's JavaScript)." - Pavel Djundik
They've written two, actually. One for X11, and a new one for Wayland
- Will the Steamdeck version of SteamOS (the one thats based on arch) be open source?

Valve's Proton Has Enabled 7000 Windows Games on Linux
SteamOS compositor with commits from Valve devs: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steamos-compositor/commits/...
I'm sure they also have/had contractors working on it like they do for the other Linux gaming effors but a claim that it was "was only contracted-out by Valve" needs something to back it up.
What are some alternatives?
