    I'm running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and finally completely dumped Win10 as it was BSODing itself apart during games anyway.

    Constantly impressed with how many games "just work", and not even just with Steam. Heroic for GoG stuff, Lutris, Bottles for classics I still got on disc...it's awesome!

    But you mentioned Windows Only VR and I got all excited...except I've got a Samsung Odyssey+ (WMR) and realized Monado is the only hope of it not being an expensive blackbox brick. :(

    You're right, it's not "just" Proton. I also tried recently GoG for Pod and... it just worked! From buying the (sigh) Windows game to playing on Linux in literally minutes. Amazing.

    For WMR I don't know unfortunately. Monado does work though and I would check https://lvra.gitlab.io as it's a great starting point, maybe starting with the Monado SteamVR plugin.
