They lost a trial in this allnd paid a flick on the wrist.
They just so this because they know it will get them more than it will cost.
Install Linux, make the switch. Yes you can.
If you game on PC, you're going to have a bad time.
No you're not. That was 5-10 years ago.
How does stuff like DLSS or similar work with Proton? I remember reading once that it wasn't a straight forward process. That was a few years ago though, I don't know if it's changed (or if I misunderstood what I read — always a possibility).
I suppose it doesn't matter much to me in the medium term, as I use mission-critical software while WFH, which is Windows only. But Linux-ifying my setup is something that always sounds appealing if I can get over the hurdles.
I don't know about DLSS specifically as I don't have a Nvidia GPU but AMD FSR works fine as long as you use a somewhat new version of Proton. (And FSR isn't limited to AMD GPUs)
Not the full answer but an encouraging detail, thanks for the info!
