Any programs that interact with hardware won’t work still. Like the 8bitdo app and asrock led thingy for my gpu.

There's ways around that with wine isn't there?

Not that I know of. I’ve tried with multiple wine and proton versions and some apps just never work. They install and launch but they can’t do anything to the hardware
