IIRC Most major anti-cheat platforms not using kernel -level support linux these days. The SteamDeck forced their hand.
The problem is the developers. They have the ability to specifically block Linux and that’s only going to change once enough people use it. As for kernel level that’s an entirely different can of worms and I’m fine just not playing those games.
There’s also the challenge of getting developers to retroactively fix AC support for games that are still popular but not otherwise maintained. Though this is usually an issue with kernel level stuff that can’t easily be fixed on Proton’s end on a case by case basis.
