Running Galaxy with proton-ge. Sure, it doesn’t install linux versions of games or anything, but it works.

Basically what I did was:

• run arch btw, obviously and loaded with sarcasm, as always
• install aur.archlinux.org/packages/proton-ge-custom-bin
• aquired galaxy installer (GOG’s site hides download links on linux… why???)
• proton gog-galaxy-installer.exe to install. It installs to ~/.local/share/proton-pfx/0/pfx/drive_c/Program Files/GOG Galaxy (or somesuch)
• I made a shortcut to launch the galaxy.exe with proton from the directory & using the directory as working directory
• profit.

Seems to work fine, some older version of proton-ge and/or nvidia driver under wayland made the client bit sluggish, but that has fixed itself. Games like Cyberpunk work fine. The galaxy overlay doesn’t, though.
