I remember when Proton launched it was like magic playing games like Doom and Nier Automata straight from the Linux Steam client with excellent performance. I do not miss the days of having the Windows version of Steam installed separately.

Lack of open source drivers and junk support from Nvidia.

I'm talking about the nvidia drivers themselves, not some hacked together drivers by a third party that barely work.

I talk not about hacked together drivers(GPL-shim) by a third party(Nvidia) that barely works too

Nouveau drivers are not made by Nvida? What are you even talking about? They are third party drivers that are not even fully functional because Nvida will not open source their own drivers for linux.

I am saying that Nvidia here is third party. Nvidia is not kernel developer.
