Unless something has changed very recently, Destiny 2 does not work under Proton because the Anti-cheat isn't compatible. Windows is an option, but I'd really recommend a dedicated Windows handheld for that instead of the Deck.
I haven't tried Windows on the Deck itself, but based on 6800u performance, you're looking at maybe getting a solid 30fps on lowest settings. Destiny 2 is not a very well optimized game atm, and even the Ally at 20w can have trouble holding good performance in Neomuna or the Tower.
The DRM Destiny 2 uses is compatible, they just aren't enabling that flag in their builds. Destiny 2 ran great on Stadia and that was Linux.
Maybe, but unless we're in there, it's hard to say for sure. Battleye supports it but given the clusterfuck that is the Tiger engine, they might be using an old or heavily modified version. Especially given how easily cheaters are getting past it atm, I would not assume they're keeping up to date on it without some evidence.
Stadia limits the player's control of the system substantially and might not have even needed the anticheat, or the same anticheat, given it's closer to a console in terms of user's ability to run programs alongside the game to modify memory.
All fair points. Still wish they'd do the work to support the Steamdeck and stop banning players on Linux.
