With all the work that's gone into Proton over the past few years, the vast majority of games Just Work and there's very well-documented tweaks for making the vast majority of the rest work as well. It's relatively rare to have a game that's completely unplayable on Linux, unless it's hampered specifically by anti-cheat software that doesn't like Linux.

A bunch of games in Proton pretty much work in singleplayer and very few work in multiplayer due to anti-cheat software incompatibilities.
It’s disingenuous to steer people toward Proton without mentioning that fact about multiplayer, given how hugely popular multiplayer is.
Not if one doesn’t play any multiplayer games. There are many who don’t.
If you’re looking to switch then shouldn’t you be doing your own research? Words like disingenuous reek of fanboyism.
I have high hopes that the apparent future popularity of the Steam Deck will make a serious dent into this shortcoming within the next year.
