Yeah honestly this was super dumb. I’ve seen so many people make the mistake of not turning this on (myself included). Even watched a dude make a whole video about Linux gaming with it disabled. It’s so stupid to have it off by default.
That setting defaults to off. Changing the default to on means new users won’t have to figure out it exists, and shows confidence in proton

I have seen the other way around, a friend had Steam installed on their Linux PC but Proton was off and she didn’t know what it was.
