Valve may be single handily driving better Linux adoption rates with Steam deck.

And performance on Linux is outpacing Windows

17โ advantage? Daaamn hope these aren't anomalies, because like 2 years ago Wine performance only lagged behind like 5โ , and this sounds too good to be true for me.
I believe the biggest factor is Linux's better resource management.
Its a combination of Vulkan and Valve paying devs to work on Proton.
Vulkan is a fantastic Graphics API. Vulkan is more optimized than DirectX, and it's so much better than DirectX that the DXVK (DirectX to Vulkan) Wrapper that Proton implements makes games run better, despite the fact it's running through an obfuscation.
You somehow used the care/of symbol (โ ) instead of percent (%). Impressive!
