There are still a lot of proton games where I encounter the weirdest bugs and when I report those the game devs don't do anything about it and say it's a proton/linux issue what they don't support. For some games, especially VR, windows is mandatory.
if you are having weird bugs when playing via Proton, report the issue on the Proton GitHub page. If it's a graphical glitch you can also report it to proton-vkd3d or DXVK depending on which one is being used by the game. If unsure just report it only to Proton.
The Proton developers and the developers of associated projects (DXVK, vkd3d, etc) will often add workarounds into the various parts of the Proton platform to get a game to work correctly, even if the problem you are seeing is a game bug or driver bug.
