@laru I used to do that but honestly I just use steam and protontricks, though given that most Windows apps I run are games it might not be for everyone

@norm i havent used steam in like forever, and considering theyre now going anti ownership too i dont think id want to rely on them (not directly a problem with proton but if wine works fine for the rare occasions when i need it why would i want to use some potentially abusive corporations fork)
