    Yep! Idk if the apple architecture caused any issues but I highly doubt it. At least on arch Linux it’s as easy as “sudo pacman -S steam”. It has some dependencies obviously, but after that it’ll be installed and you can sign in easy peasy. It’ll install proton through the steam downloader too, the only setting you even need to change is steam > settings > compatibility > Enable Steam Play for all other titles; run with proton experimental.

    Master chief collection is on steam, and is playable with proton

      Dammnn you just made my day! I’m not using my Mac for that. It doesn’t have enough storage space on a good day. I have a Windows 10 computer that decided to change it’s own password that I’ll erase and put Linux on.

      Do you have any recommendations on Linux OS? Right now I’m using Fedora but it seems like there are better options out there, especially if playing games.

        Avoid Ubuntu, it uses flatpak. Besides that it’s really personal preference. I personally love endeavouros, very easy installation process and a lot of desktop environments to choose from. Comes with some helpful initial setup tools too. It’s arch Linux based and there’s a ton of resources for arch too, but arch does come with a learning curve. Backups are your friend
