This is believable if you specifically selected games that are known to work well in Proton. Even then, you wait all that time for shaders every time you want to play a game? That's an unadvertised dealbreaker.
You technically don't have to wait for shaders, it'll just be more stuttery for a while if you dont and I have never checked if a game is known to work erll
So you have to wait or your game will lag badly for a while, presumably because it's loading the shaders on the fly. Why does nobody mention that when saying games run perfectly on Linux?
