Additionally, what changes are necessary for you to be able to use Linux full time?

Multiplayer games often use a third party anti-cheat software. Some of them work on Linux, some of them don't. What the previous commenter was referring to specifically is that some anti-cheat, like easy anti cheat has been updated to work in proton, but it requires that game developer push out an update to enable that functionality. Some do, and some (Bungie) have outright refused to do it, and even threaten bans for players that try to play on Linux.
