Gaming is the primary driver behind my PC choices by a humongous margin. I'm not really concerned about imvasive anti-cheat software, I don't want to tinker with settings, I want to turn on my computer and play video games. That means I use Windows.

This right here. Lutris, proton, WINE, proton-QT, winetricks... Just so much shit.

I'm really trying to learn it but..it's a bit much

You don't have to go all in, use Steam for purchased games, and use the already created Lutris templates on everything else.

Proton-QT is for updating Proton used by Lutris.
