      Proton is just Valve’s fork of Wine. It had a lot of game-specific patches, to make all the Steam games work better.

      Wine isn’t meant specifically for games - you can run most Windows applications in it. It’s just translations of Windows syscalls to Linux equivalents, to put it simply.
