I saw there was a somewhat similar post to this, but I’m kind of celebrating the fact that this was the first year I was able to game exclusively on Linux! I’m very thankful for all of the effort from the people involved in all of the aspects of Wine/Proton, it’s great to not need to reboot to play games.

    That’s my thought on programs like that. Unless you absolutely have to run some extremely esoteric software or something from a company that just hates Linux, it’s usually going to work just fine. It was completely worthwhile to deal with learning a new workflow on a few things to get all of the benefits. I found native replacements that work just as well if not better for every program that I used, except for my music player. I can’t find anything that works quite as well as Aimp, so I just run it through Wine.

    My viewpoint on a lot of things is to use what works for you. In my case, Windows didn’t cut it anymore, so I switched to what did!
