Very interesting news. I haven't tried it out personally; But if it works, I imagine that'd be huge.

This pretty much opens the door for Proton on mobile I guess?

No, sadly, unless you have an amd64 phone, which would honestly be weird at this point.

-guy who spent to long trying to get Linux Dwarf Fortress running on an ARM tablet not a month ago.

That's why I prefer to distribute programs as .wasm files. Efficiently run code on any hardware.

It would be great if publishers started doing this, however, this way you cannot sell Skyrim or/and gta5 *th time in a row

you could start with FOSS software.

It's likely you could use winlator to play the windows version of the game (I know, not quite the same, although it does run wine via a linux container lmao)

Winlator is kind of a bitch to configure to get things running smoothly. I spent wayyyyyyy too much time trying to get new vegas to run at 60fps on my fold 4 just because I wanted to see if I could. I got close but now it crashes every minute or so. Moved my save over to my pc lmao. If you'd like, you can dm me and I can try to help you out with getting it to run. I ended up joining several discord servers to try to learn what the options do. It sucked but I think i have a somewhat basic understanding of how things function now.

Appreciate the offer. I managed to get it running full screen on a sever I can vnc into, just like steam link except not slow.

Note: SL may not be slow, but the server it's on aty place is a potato. Doing DF and steam (goddamnit I'd love to kill steam webhelper) and steam link will make you crazy.

Box64 might be worth checking out. I didn't get much out of it but your mileage may vary.

Proton on mobiles already exists Check out Box64Droid
