I have never used the Steam beta or Proton-GE or whatever information is spreading out there to noobs about what they should do, and I’ve been gaming exclusively on Linux for more than 20 years. Only do this beta or bleeding edge stuff if you have a problem, and a good reason to believe that will help (like people reporting your specific issue is fixed in beta). Or I guess if you’re bored out of your mind. And expect other issues since it’s fucking beta.
