That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

Sometimes the game runs fine in Proton but there are a couple of small things that don’t work right. The dev could probably iron out the kinks on their end. Usually games just run fine for me.

I will say, Valve needs to fix the Steam overlay in Proton because for some reason the text is so tiny on my 1440 monitor that I literally can’t read it. Give me a UI scale option.

I managed to install a heavily modded version of Fallout 4 with Fallout London through non-steam .exe’s with Proton, so at this point I’m convinced it can handle anything.

Weird, I run 1440p as well. Using Proton vs actual Windows has exactly zero apparent difference for me.
