Valve released Proton 10.0-3, the latest main stable version of the compatibility layer to run Windows games on Linux / SteamOS machines like Steam Deck. And now the Steam Machine and Steam Frame too of course whenever they arrive sometime in 2026.

The secret sauce that makes Linux gaming so amazing now, enabling tens of thousands of games to run well, just not those with certain types of anti-cheat which is a continuing problem. It's been a long road to get here, with Proton 10 being in some form of Beta since April. But it's here now!

The Rust guy is saying that almost all of the 0.1% were cheaters so just removing their access by flicking a switch in EAC is a simple fix to the cheaters there.

They of course have cheaters on Windows too but that's an ongoing problem and more complicated for them to fix.

He's just picking low hanging fruit to address his cheater problem on Rust instead of finding a proper solution that would probably involve a way too costly rebuild of key services.
