MITRE’s CVE program may shut down as DHS funding expires, threatening global cybersecurity coordination and exposing critical gaps in vulnerability tracking.

This is an utter failure of oversight in governance. And likely a misappropriation of government funds.

What a colossally shortsighted decision.

      It’s a legit concern, but like you said I think it’s very game dependent. Proton gets updates all the time, too. My recommendation is to look it up on protondb and see if there are major issues or tweaks you can apply. All I can say is there is no Linux tax on games. A game can run as well or better on Linux as Windows. It comes down to the specifics of the game.

          I did a quick check, and both The Last of Us Part I and II are rated Gold. In my experience, a gold rating is a good sign, but you may still need to tweak a setting or two. Definitively worth reading the comments and look especially if there are any known issues with your particular setup. Even things like dual screens, HiDPI, etc can sometimes make a difference.

          The reason things are so unpredictable is it all works like Wine does: it doesn’t run Windows in a virtual machine: it re-implements the APIs (like Direct3D). This makes things fast (and sometimes faster!), when they work, but when the implementations deviate things can go off the rails.

      Could be the game, could be the version of Proton, could be the driver. Could be plenty of things. It isn’t quite as plug and play as Windows can be, but it’s not that bad, provided your stack is compatible. I personally don’t really have any problems.
