This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Any idea what? Wine/proton should abstract away all those issues

Wine/proton is specifically what doesn't work, though most linux native games also did not work. Based on my experience with that I'm confident that everyone saying it just works for them has relatively new hardware.

You get a vulkan error that sounds the same if you have the wrong GPU drivers, some older cards need a different driver eg radeon vs amdgpu

Also possible your card is so old it doesn't even have a vulkan implementation, what was it?
