I'm keeping my eyes peeled. Proton has made a LOT of progress, and most of what I do could be done on Linux these days. I think things are moving foward.
Proton and flatpak. The latter still has a lot of issues, but I recently come across a $200+ piece of commercial software (Bitwig Studio) that distributes as a flatpak, and it works great. And so is 99% of the desktop apps I'm using, Steam included.
Flathub is the best app store around. Can't wait until they allow selling paid apps (they had a few contractors working on it last I checked)
I don’t do anything with audio more advanced than what FFmpeg can handle, but I do edit video on occasion and I think Lightworks on Linux is actually pretty solid.
There’s a free version of Lightworks as well actually. I ended up paying for the permanent license for the pro version when it was on sale a few years ago and it’s been pretty ok.
