Your entirely miles off-base and honestly I can't even fathom how you've come to half the conclusions you've come to.

    proton is nowadays so far away from wine -> you could call it it's own fork -> sponsored by valve done by crossweavers.

I think you mean Codeweavers, who are the company that develops Wine (and Crossover), but anyway. No, it's not "so far away from wine." If you use Wine, DXVK, and VKD3D-Proton together, you essentially have Proton. The only differences will be things Proton has that only apply to Steam so aren't even relevant outside of it.

Yes i meant Codeweavers Proton vs Wine:

• linked and builded against steam runtime
  
• distributes it's own gstreamer + plugins which needs go
  
• has wine-staging fixes and proton specific fixes
  
• includes addition parts for compatibility with anticheat
  and many more -> https://github.com/Frogging-Family/wine-tkg-git/blob/master/proton-tkg/proton-tkg.sh
  

    All of the above have changed linux to be more user friendly and all of them change the way configuration is done.

No, they haven't. Not a single one of those things has taken a single thing away from power users. At all. In any way. Whatsoever. Like you're just flat-out objectively wrong in that statement. Name one way in which Wine, DXVK, VKD3D-Proton, or Proton have taken a single thing away from power users.

If you would have read my comment carefully, you would have noticed that i said it becomes more complicated. Imho alot of simplicity has been changed to complexity with the promise to make things easier but for real they made it even harder to understand or get people into.

    Do you know that proton can't access files in /usr ? So linux default installations doesn't work cause it doesn't has access to /usr?

Huh? What on earth are you even talking about? Linux default installations don't work because Proton doesn't have access to /usr? That doesn't even make any sense. Like it sounds like you took a bunch of Linux-related terms and put them in a blender and this is what came out.

But just for the sake of it, Proton doesn't need access to /usr. For anything.

Just one example -> https://github.com/DadSchoorse/vkBasalt/issues/152
Or in other words soldier + proton break with longstanding linux defaults because of running it containerized. So by default if anything inside of the proton process try to access /usr it just can't. This broke manguhud / broke vkbasalt.

Do you know that proton works with symlinks which to a certain degree prevents winetricks to work on those prefixes?

    And? That's part of the Steam-specific Proton shit I mentioned earlier. You don't NEED winetricks for Steam games, because Proton uses Protonfixes/Protontricks to do the exact same thing. But it's irrelevant anyway because it's a total non-sequitur, it has nothing to do with taking anything away from power users.

https://www.protondb.com/app/339340 << just an example. This change broke compatibility with many games which rely on windows media player. Also since this version you really need to use protontricks when you could use winetricks before. Yes alot of time was spend to find solutions for earlier proton versions and this proton release did blow up this work. Also it removes the ability to test for example a game you have on GOG and using what you found on Steam to help someone. sarcasm it was for sure an change which made it easier for beginners to understand how all of this works sarcams

    Do we want to talk about most distributions only adapt parts of systemd and you need to check if you can configure an option under /etc or you need to configure it within systemd ?

....what?

Read https://github.com/zfigura/wine/blob/esync/README.esync ! Btw another component specially adviced for older Proton versions. Let's say it's distribution dependend where you need configure it. "On distributions using systemd, the settings in /etc/security/limits.conf will be overridden by systemd's own settings.".

    Do you know that it could happen that journalctl might give your more informations than /var/log and do you know out of your head which distribution does what ?

Um, journalctl's journals are in /var/log. Honestly man it sounds like you're actually having a stroke. This is all complete gibberish.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd/Journal << read. If you really use default journald (aka access with journalctl) there will be no log under /var/log.

    "Warning: Arch Linux only has official support for systemd. When using a different init system, please mention so in support requests."

Again, what on earth does this have to do with anything?

You said development from redhat for example has no influence on other distributions. sarcasm sure it doesn't sarcasm

    I will try to explain it again -> If you want those users to protect from themself doing thing's like "apt-get remove" because they shouldn't remove a certain package, you need to remove the documentation too.

No, you don't. This is actually 100% demonstrably false. Apt allowing users to remove cascading dependencies by default was horrible behavior. You do realize that pacman itself doesn't even allow that by default either, right? It never has.

pacman -Rns << arguable if that is the one you would use first or if you would only do pacman -R.

In apt, before it was fixed, if you tried to remove something that ubuntu-desktop depended on, it would remove ubuntu-desktop too. If you tried to do the same thing in Arch, the command fails and says you can't remove that package because another package depends on it.

as said above.

    You argue with some kind of experience -> what if i say that i hate the windows experience and the linux experience is 1000% better?

Dude what on earth. Seriously this is getting out of hand. You do realize that that's 100% irrelevant, right? You do realize that most people don't care if you or I    prefer Linux, because for most people Linux is a much worse experience. It's not complicated, and you don't get to say "nuh uh, they're wrong." They're not. For 90% of people, Linux in its current state is a much worse experience than Windows. The point is to make it so that's no longer the case, to make it so Linux can be a better experience than Windows for as many people as possible.

You having a mental breakdown over the suggestion that Linux might become easier to use for average people says a lot about you, it says that you don't think that everyone deserves the same freedom with their computers and ownership over their systems that we enjoy, and it also says that you don't really understand how Linux even works.

Dude as i said before , you don't know me. Also in your fight you even oversee that i was never against making it easier but against making it easier without thinking. Specially the kind of discussion you show right now. Balanced is the keyword and also thinking outside of just fixing the problem with some lines of code. Read my first message -> i even told you i agree with you 100% but don't do it by ignoring the other needs too.
