为了庆祝其六周年，Steam Play Proton 通过在众多游戏中提供无缝的游戏体验，彻底改变了 Linux 用户的游戏体验。 该技术于 2016 年推出，使 Steam Deck 和桌面 Linux 游戏等设备取得了成功。 有兴趣的初学者可以在这里找到全面的指南。 由于 Proton，如果没有广泛的游戏支持，Steam Deck 可能不会作为基于 Linux 的手持设备的营销而存在。 自今年 2 月推出以来，Proton 已发布 66 个版本，展示了 Steam 上各种游戏的持续改进和兼容性更新。 尽管维护与各种游戏的兼容性非常复杂，但 Proton 总共进行了 388 项更改，从错误修复到增强功能，提供了令人印象深刻的功能水平。 开发人员经常做出非常规的选择，需要 Valve 付出额外的努力来适应它们。 此外，CodeWeavers 等第三方贡献者还协助增强 Wine（Proton 背后的基础软件）及其功能。 根据在线社区平台 ProtonDB 的数据，大约 22,000 款游戏与 Proton 兼容，其中近一半（约 11k）可供两个或更多玩家流畅运行。 此外，超过 5300 款游戏已获得“已验证”状态，另有约 10600 款游戏在 Steam Deck 生态系统中获得了“可玩”评级。 然而，这些数字仅代表整个 Steam 的一部分，根据 SteamDB 的数据，Steam 拥有超过 10 万款游戏。 因此，无数未经测试但具有潜在功能的游戏可能不会被报告。 值得注意的例子包括《HELLDIVERS 2》、《博德之门 III》、《黑神话：悟空》、《侠盗猎车手 V》、《赛博朋克 2077》、《辐射 4》、《无主之地》、《ELDEN RING》、《哈迪斯 II》、《黎明杀机》、《无人深空》等。 尽管在反作弊支持方面仍需要取得进展，特别是那些利用现有反作弊技术的开发人员，但 Proton 和 Linux/Steam Deck 平台上的游戏的未来看起来充满希望。 祝 Proton 六岁生日快乐，这一重要的里程碑强化了其在打造卓越的 Linux 和 Steam Deck 游戏体验方面的作用。 跟上

用户成功从一生的Windows过渡到Fedora Linux桌面，发现通过Steam下载热门游戏功能顺利。 最初，由于 Nvidia 驱动程序，在尝试操作 Wayland 时出现了问题，但由于最近更新的 Nvidia 驱动程序中显式同步支持的升级，这些问题现已得到解决。 利用 Docker、JetBrains IDE，Visual Studio Code、Discord、Obsidian 等 Web 应用程序可以跨平台有效运行。 Linux 中的命令行功能得到了显着改进，具有运行 Oh My Zsh 的 GPU 加速的 Alacritty 终端，以及通过 fzf、exa、bat、zicide 和 starship 等工具增强的功能。 此外，包括lazydocker、lazygit、btop和neovim在内的应用程序在终端UI中启用了特殊功能，distrobox允许无缝运行Ubuntu虚拟机来测试尖端软件，而不会影响Fedora桌面的整体性能。 用户对抛弃与 Windows 相关的监控文化表示满意，并强调了 Steam 和 Linux 上的跨平台桌面应用程序提供的强大支持。 此外，Linux 提供了令人印象深刻的 Vulkan 支持，Proton 提供了光线追踪功能。 然而，正如 ArchLinux 指南中所述，实现 HDR 显示器支持的努力仍然具有挑战性，导致在 Wayland 和 Linux 中集成 HDR 技术方面进展不平衡。 最后，用户注意到某些 Linux 程序中存在次优的 UI 设计，但与现代 Windows 系统 UI 质量不断下降的情况相比，它仍然在不断改进。 此外，在承认原生 Linux 游戏和 Proton 面临的挑战的同时，用户认识到 Proton 是一个重要的桥梁，允许在原生支持有限的情况下访问流行游戏。

Today marks 6 years since Valve decided to change everything, especially for Linux fans, with the announcement of Steam Play Proton. Thanks to it, the Steam Deck and Desktop Linux gaming have continued to thrive. Want a Proton beginner's guide? Got you covered at this link.

Heck, the Steam Deck never would have been a thing without Proton. Could you imagine it? Trying to market a Linux handheld without the vast majority of games people want to play? It was also only in February this year that Valve actually decided to give it a logo too.

Thanks to all the work put into Proton from Valve developers, contractors and everyone who contributes to Wine development that Proton is based upon, we have a ridiculous amount of games where you can just click the Play button and forget about everything else in Steam.

Going by the official Valve Proton GitHub, there's been 66 releases of Proton during this time, and that's not counting all the interim updates to Proton Experimental and Proton Hotfix for quick game-specific fixes. The Proton changelog has seen 388 changes, although some will be text corrections, that's again showing just how much goes into it. It's an incredible amount of work when you think about just how many games are on Steam, and developers really love to do some weird stuff that Valve often has to work around. And let's not forget the likes of CodeWeavers, who employ people to work on Wine and Proton.

As for the current state of Desktop Linux and Steam Deck gaming overall…

Looking over the current numbers on ProtonDB, the community website where anyone can report how games work: there's 22,002 games reported to work by at least one person, 13,297 by at least two people and 9,751 that has three or more reports.

Going by Valve's own Steam Deck Verified system there's 5,297 rated Verified and 10,646 rated Playable.

Both ProtonDB and Valve's own ratings are only a small slice of Steam though, which has over 100,000 according to the Game tag on SteamDB. There's only so many games Valve can test officially and that people can report to ProtonDB, so there's likely thousands of games not reported by anyone that will just work out of the box with Proton.

It's pretty amazing that we can play the likes of HELLDIVERS 2, Baldur's Gate 3, Black Myth: Wukong, Grand Theft Auto V, Cyberpunk 2077, Fallout 4, Balatro, ELDEN RING, Hades II, Dead by Daylight, No Man's Sky and so many more at the click of a button in Steam now.

Now we just need more anti-cheat support, including from developers who already use anti-cheat that is supported to actually enable it. This is really the last major hurdle.

So here we are again, happy birthday to Proton, 6 years strong enabling gaming on Linux and Steam Deck to be an incredible thing.
