Yes, I'm a long time mint user, and I was also a 1st batch steamdeck so I've seen how far just proton has come. There's still a handful of games that just won't work, work but not with the mods I need, or take a performance hit. I also have a driving simulator with a VR headset. I'm sure I could get it running on Linux eventually but windows just does it. Recognizes and just installed the drivers for all my hardware. And for VR, there are now a lot of solutions, but I've found windows to just be the fastest and best performing. I need every frame I can get running vr on a 2060.
Yeah, modding sucks right now. If the game let's you manually add mods without injecting, then it's fine, though manual can take a while. Nexus Mod Manager (and most others, though CKAN for KSP(1&2) works pretty well but won't launch the game through that application for me) don't work yet for Linux, but it looks like they're working on a new application that'll run natively on Linux, so I'm looking forward to that.
r2modman has a native Linux client as well and handles pretty much all unity games
