I gotcha! Guess i remembered wrong about Macs! I think Linux have a lot of games now with the proton i read around 2900 games that work.

My own experience with Linux and Steam currently (and since roughly beginning of 2023 at least) is that 99% of all games work on Linux/Proton if you enable Proton for everything.

But it's probably somewhat dependent on your distro and hardware. I have all AMD and Nobara, and with this combo I haven't met a game that doesn't work, at least in a year.

In my experience, distro and hardware hardly matters at all.
The 99% figure seems to be about right (I have 2 games out of 240 I can't get to work).
I have an nvidia card and recently tried out Debian, Opensuse, Slackware and Arch, with equal results.
