I'm a Windows 10 user hoping to switch to Linux over Windows 11. One of my common uses for my computer is VR, via a Valve Index. Is this going to be a problem for me? I know historically, its been pretty bad, and ProtonDB shows very mixed ratings, but I also know Linux has been improving fast so am hoping that others will disagree with that.

I have had no issues running beatsaber on my 7900xt/5800x3d. I assume you don't mean anything else either. /s

to be honest, i have had nearly no issues running anything at all. Only bf6 has been a notable failure for me so far.
