When does proton start pulling it?

[–] Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 3 weeks ago

Wine 10 to Proton 10 beta took four months

I know Proton-GE usually takes a week or two.

if proton is a few months behind wine in big updates, does proton-ge update faster? or is it a week or to behind proton

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Proton-GE is essentially bleeding edge with all of its dependencies and upstream set to latest, so it gets updated constantly as a rolling release.

Valve waits until the next version has been well tested before bumping it in proton experimental, and then eventually the default release.
