Is Proton really a fork?
Isn't it more of a downstream repackaging like Ubuntu is to Debian?
Or is it more comparable to WINE Vs. WINE-Staging?

Is Proton really a fork?Since they applied patches that differ from mainline wine it's a fork.

Since they applied patches that differ from mainline wine it's a fork.Sure, strictly speaking Ubuntu is also a Debian fork.
But I think if you keep in sync with upstream and just apply a set of patches, with no intention to diverge the code-base to become incompatible, then fork isn't really the right term I guess.
