  I don’t use Linux, and I didn’t know if there was a difference between any of those terms. Soni just used all of em 😅

    Those two are mutually exclusive. An application that uses Proton can’t be natively Linux-compatible, and an application that is natively Linux-compatible can’t run using Proton.

    natively on a Windows PC or on Linux via Proton

    Sounds like it’s a Windows build, but the developers also provide first party support for running it on Proton.

    There very much is a difference. Proton is the compatibility layer used to run Windows games in Linux. Native would not use Proton.
