Search any Steam game to see whether it runs on Linux, whether to use Proton or the native build, and how current that answer is — based on reports from people actually playing it.
How it works
Look up a game and start with the recommendation: use Proton, use the native build, or wait. Want proof? Open the reports and filter by GPU, driver, distro, kernel, Wayland or X11, and Proton branch. New players get a straight answer; power users get the raw evidence — same page.
What we’re fixing
Stale reports lose weight over time and get flagged after major Proton, driver, or anti-cheat changes — so the top of the page reflects what's true now.
A native build that runs worse than Proton no longer hides behind a single label. Each path gets its own score and a recommended pick.
Launch options are categorized (required to launch, performance, hardware-specific, preference) with helpful/not-helpful votes and last-confirmed dates.
Reports have a stable identity with append-only history. Fix a mistake without leaving confusing duplicate posts behind.
