      If anyone could answer these questions for me that would be 😎.

      I haven’t used lutris or wine/proto yet. Do you just sign into your steam account through lutris and it sets up the library automatically?

      Is steams proton installed with steam now? Or do I have to get that somewhere else?

      Why would I need to use lutris if the games are in steam big picture?

      I don’t really understand the wine and proton aspect in terms installing and using it.

      Edit: just realized this is about cracked games… For my post I am talking about steam store bought games.

        Steam is available on most distro repo’s and even if it isn’t install it via flatpak and off you go

        once you’ve done that goto settings and steam play and there’s a option there something about “use proton for all unverified games” or something, I’m not at my pc to get the direct wording and then you’ll be able to install any game from your library and play it

        you can use protondb.com to check if games you want to play work on Linux with proton
