Quoting: Shmerlsome who use Proton but not Steam PlayI'm curious about how many people fit into this category. Not sure if it's worth the trouble to actually find out though.

Oh my, what is going on in this thread? ;)
Shmerl makes a good argument for separating 'Wine+derivatives' and 'Steam Play-Proton'. That should be fine.
Before making any changes though, I'd recommend taking a moment to think about the survey itself.
What sort of data are we collecting, and for what purpose? Is it illustrating meaningful stats in its current state?
For example, AMD drivers was mentioned. While an interesting topic in itself (to some at least), perhaps it's unnecessarily complicated to separate all the open source options, unless there's a valid reason to investigate the various drivers usage specifically.
I'm all for Keeping It Simple Sugarhoneybabycakes.

When was the last time you used Wine to play a Windows game?I think the answers here will be very different depending on how people interpret Wine to also include Proton. Perhaps rephrase, or add another question?

A thought occurs.
Since they are developing a MacOS version too (crazy! right?), there should be a reasonable financial incentive for it. If they don't make any money, why do it? Good Samaritans are like unicorns and we all know it. :S:
Are MacOS sales really worth anything? Are they worth MORE than the Linux sales? :S:
I mean even Apple seems to consider gaming in MacOS to be like 'eh, whatevs'. Maybe there could be close to zero effort to bang out a MacOS version once the Linux port is done? I really don't think so, but I have no real insight here.
Quite interesting if we could hear what Feral has to say about this.
