Good Linux ports are great, but realistically most of the Linux native games in my collection run worse than if I force the same game to run through proton.

Good native versions take more work than most devs are able/willing to give with the size of the Linux community. If devs will actually give attention to and make sure the proton versions of their games run well, that's a better outcome than the state of Linux gaming up until now.

And hopefully Linux user base will grow enough that we're worth actual maintained native ports in the future, but until that happens we don't need to be hostile towards devs for using an easier method to make sure their games are available on Linux.
