WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR OTHER LAUNCHERS (lutris/bottles/heroic/legendary,etc):

  • everyone can use + contribute to the same protonfixes, no more managing individual install scripts per launcher
  • everyone can run their games through proton just like a native steam game
  • no steam or steam binaries required
  • a unified online database of game fixes (protonfixes)

      Given Proton can actually be faster on some windows games, there might be a legitimate use case for this.

      It would also be useful for developers to use for testing. Low friction access to a Linux runtime environment would make it a lot more reasonable for Devs to support Linux as well.

        That’s mostly down to DXVK, not Proton in general. You can’t really translate Windows API calls from Windows to … Windows. It wouldn’t change anything. Running games with Vulkan might though, especially with Intel Arc for example.
