Hi everyone, I just finished writing a guide on everything you need to know in order to game on Linux. It covers Proton (Steam play), using Heroic Launcher (with Wine-GE), and all sorts of tidbits and tips I wish people had told me earlier. I hope this can be useful to someone out there!

Luckily, Steam has a convenient way of moving games to your Linux partition.

How do you do this? Thanks.

Whoops. I forgot to mention this. I'll add a little section for it later...

Go to Steam settings --> Storage. There you can add your 2nd Steam folder and be able to move games back and forth. You can select many games and click "Move".
