Asked By TechieTraveler42 On

I'm new to Linux, transitioning from Windows to Linux Mint on my Asus Zenbook 14 OLED (Ultra 9 285H). I'd love to hear your optimization tips and any experiences you have with using Wine and Proton on this distribution.

Just a heads up, Linux Mint doesn't have an "Edge" version anymore, so make sure you have the latest release. Also, be aware that older kernels might not support some of the newer hardware features.

Wine and Proton generally work well on Linux Mint. You can check out ProtonDB.com for specific tweaks to help you run your games smoothly. I personally find the Cinnamon desktop a bit clunky, though; it may take some getting used to.

A great tip: always take regular backups of your system and experiment in a virtual machine first if you're trying new things. It’s helpful to understand every command before you hit Enter; that can save you a lot of headaches!
