Switched to Mint, couple questions (lemmy.world)

I've made the jump to Mint for my gaming PC. I work primarily on Ubuntu systems (cli, no gui) so it was a pretty simple choice. I installed GE proton, which fixed the lobby audio bug in phasmophobia, is there any reason I shouldn't just use that version of proton for all steam games?

One other question, evolution looks pretty solid for mail, any reason I should look elsewhere?

The reason is, different proton builds work better or worse for different games depending on the optimizations in that particular build and game. GE is pretty solid all around, but with some older games you may need to roll back or go to experimental for some others
