The article doesn't specifically mention DXVK which was the real breakthrough innovation IMO. Consider that Wine predates Proton by many years, and vanilla Wine is also fantastic for gaming since DXVK's introduction. But Valve did fund DXVK by paying its inventor for full time work. So thanks Valve! Thanks Philip Rebohle! Thanks Wine devs! It's been amazing!
