    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

      Yes, exactly. I wonder how many new, non-technical users tried Proton for the first time with the setting off and decided it was crap because nothing worked. I’m glad Valve decided to do this now.

      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.
