I really enjoy Linux but I find myself having to keep Windows partitions around for software that specifically requires Windows.

Proton makes everything easier by automatically running game files through a translation layer, and it “just works” quite well most of the time.

Also VanillaOS can apparently auto-spin a container when you try to open a .deb or AUR package (this is my rudimentary understanding).

Setting up WINE/Bottles, etc. is above my pay grade.

Is it not possible to create an OS that just does the same thing as Steam but for the entire OS?

    How do you have them installed? I have no experience with proton.

    If you didnt understand things ask good questions or use your favourite search engine ;D

      I click the “install” button on Steam.

      I’m really just not interested in obtaining a software engineering degree. But thanks.

        I have no idea of coding, this is just about using software.

        Yeah idk this may be a steam specific thing so use it with steam I guess?
