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?
You can run 3 vm instances, 1 win10, 1 android, 1 ios, and within them you can run native whatevers.
Why would you want to run crap in your nice clean **nix environment is beyond me. And nothing will ever improve with this kind of mentality.
Again, free software stands for freedom, not cheap or of 0 exchange value.

You don’t have to sell Linux to me, I’ve been onboard since 95. :-)
All I’m saying is: if I needed to run Windows apps with zero hassle, I’d use Windows. I don’t, so I won’t.
