No. Don't do that. Use wine-ge instead.

[-] Muehe@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

AFAIK you can set Lutris up to use GE or Proton builds.

I'm running WOTLK classic just fine with proton on Lutris ✅

Yes you can run proton-ge or proton with lutris. Glorious Eggrole though highly recommend against doing so since proton-ge is an optimized proton version for steam, that's why there is wine-ge for non-steam games or applications.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Proton-ge for steams proton and Wine-ge for non steam usecases.

Oh so that's what you meant. Thought you meant don't use Lutris at first because of how you worded it. That makes much more sense.
