IME, there's very little that won't run. I don't have a single game in my Steam library that doesn't run just fine. The most I've had to do to run anything was to try different versions of Proton, and that's as easy as choosing from a dropdown menu.
And what if we have a ton of games outside of steam?
My next pc will probably have linux, and my current windows as vm. I will get them to work hehe
Non-steam games can be added to Steam and run from there. There are also other launchers such as Lutris and Heroic that can help you install, manage, and run games from other marketplaces or other non-standard sources.
Figured as much, as proton seems to be focused purely on handheld devices needing launchers etc. But thats ok, means they are (hopefully) upstreaming back to wine
Proton is not specifically focused on handhelds. It's definitely an all-platforms thing.
You'll still be using proton in Lutris or Bottles most likely, at least for games. Proton is just a compatibility layer. Proton is absolutely not focused on handhelds. It's just performance improvements for Wine for Windows games.
You may be thinking of SteamOS.
A combination of Lutris, Bottles, and Proton GE has covered me so far. I find Lutris more gaming focused, and I have used Bottles a lot for little windows programs that aren't really games (as an example, some stuff I have for making TTRPG maps and tokens and stuff that I could probably find alternatives to, but they work fine in Bottles so
¯\_(ツ)_/¯).
