    surprisingly on some slightly older games (tf2, HL2) I get a huge FPS boost in Linux compared to windows

    Oh, I remember watching video on youtube on that topic. Short answer: because opensource. Long answer: because developers better understood how to optimize. Same optimizations slightly boosted FPS on windows.

    I don’t even know what proton is

    Valve games run natively on Linux, so no need in proton.
