Quoting: Craggles086Just because it works on the current update of Konsole, do not count on it working for gnome terminal, LXTerminal, Terminator.. etc

I've never seen a modern console that doesn't work with drag and drop. If it doesn't, it should. A basic usability feature IMO.

I definitely disagree, backtracking like that isn't a great look especially since other reviews say Proton is hardly running it "to perfection".

Looking on ProtonDB, only one even semi-recent user review had issues with it, issues I've not seen - it worked perfectly.

As for the "backtracking", this is part of the point of Proton and where Linux gaming is - developers don't need to always port if Proton works well enough and it's hardly ever been financially worth it for them to do so. Until the Linux user share is higher (which may come with the Deck), Proton is the bridge we need. Complaining about it enabling a game work on Linux, and berating a developer because they chose not to do a Native build doesn't really help anyone at this point.

The situation is different if they took money (like crowdfunding) but they did not.

Keeping in mind their original comment as July 2019, a lot has happened since then with Proton.

Quoting: rea987It is worth mentioning that the dev uses Proton as an excuse for not even trying to make previously promised Linux version. I rather pass.

Update: the developer replied, and it's now under the GPL license, so it's properly open source.

Nope, it was released yesterday, it's a proper update.

You don't even need to turn off the read-only filesystem to do it, and so changes made will be persistent too through OS upgrades.

I don't understand this - I'd guess not turning off read-only filesystem would make the changes non-persistent?

And...

Under System -> System Settings toggle Enable Developer Mode

Isn't this turning off the read-only filesystem?

From what this developer said, that doesn't turn off the read-only file system. In fact, even Valve's own FAQ [External Link] tells you it needs a terminal command with sudo to do.

Update: a fix for this is now available in Proton Experimental, so switch to that for now.

I don't know why you've posted that? Lots of those are from previous releases I covered in other articles, there's a reason I only noted one - as it's the only new one noted in this update.
