Valve and CodeWeavers today released Proton 10.0-4 as their newest update to this downstream of Wine that powers Steam Play for running Windows games on Linux.

Proton 10.0-4 enables more games to now work on Proton stable with the games below having only previously worked on Proton Experimental. Plus there are dozens of game-specific fixes as well as fixing some earlier Proton 10 regressions.

You’re allowing PC gaming to become locked like Android/iOS for very little in return.

They paid a lot of money to make what is currently the best compatibility layer for modern games on Linux and released it as FOSS software. And someone already forked it into a non steam stand alone launcher if you don't want to use Steam.

That's like ... the complete opposite of "allowing PC gaming to become locked".

They paid way less money than CodeWeavers who released their work freely as well.

I’m not able to use it for games outside of Steam because Steam is a monopoly and loads of games release exclusively for it.
