Bottles is just a GUI to help you set up wine environments without having to deal with wine directly.

For troubleshooting just the lutris forums and wine bugtracker. I mostly play steam games so protondb is the best source of troubleshooting tips.

For those of us who didn’t know, CachyOS is and Arch-based distor with performance focus and some ease of use tools.

this blog explains some difference to other Arch-based distros

Tip: Add your non-steam games to steam to launch launch them with Proton. thats probably the easiest way.

Otherwise there’s Bottles and Lutris (and maybe HeroicLauncher)

100% this. The freedom to say anything also does not entail the right to be listened to. Nobody is required to platform “undesirable” speech. Getting banned from a platform is a perfectly acceptable consequence.
