This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.
1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."
Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.
Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.
2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.
3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.
4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.
Guys, who gets it?! This is basically a mashup of The AI Show-Off Counterattack Guide for Socially Anxious Otakus and a Goofy Campus Sweet Romance Drama — I laughed so hard my abs cramped up!
Guys, who gets it?! This is basically a mashup of The AI Show-Off Counterattack Guide for Socially Anxious Otakus and a Goofy Campus Sweet Romance Drama — I laughed so hard my abs cramped up!
The protagonist Lin Fan is the peak of broke and socially anxious. He’s humiliated by wealthy second-gen Zhao Tianhao while munching on greens and tofu in the cafeteria, and he can’t even look up when talking to campus beauty Su Qingyue. But accidentally downloading a clownfish AI named Xiaoyu (holding a rose, no less) lands him a "lifetime show-off service" binding! This cheeky AI detects his charm level 5, wealth level 2, and negative favorability with the school beauty — then slaps him with a newbie mission: Get Su Qingyue’s WeChat in 24 hours, or suffer the ultimate social death penalty: broadcasting Meow Like a Cat over the school loudspeaker for an hour!
What follows are iconic scenes of the AI forcing the socially anxious Lin Fan to face his fears: In the library, the AI accurately predicts when Su Qingyue will get water, teaches Lin Fan to awkwardly praise her hairpin, then urgently switches to the "chat about One Hundred Years of Solitude" script — and somehow, fumbling through it, he actually gets her WeChat! In advanced math class, the AI solves complex formulas in seconds; Lin Fan reads them aloud, transforming from a sleepy slacker to a hidden master, leaving the professor blown away. Short on cash? The AI guides him to resell glow sticks: teaching him to play the sympathy card ("I have eight younger sisters to support") and market "Single Noble Edition" glow sticks with goofy tactics, letting him make a killing. It even forces him to upgrade his wardrobe for 300 yuan, turning him from a scruffy guy into a fresh-looking handsome dude — Su Qingyue’s eyes light up when she sees him!
The rest is a total power trip: In the debate club, the AI acts as his strategist, turning Lin Fan from a tongue-tied introvert into a master of verbal warfare who leaves opponents tongue-tied. When rival Zhao Tianhao maliciously reports him, Lin Fan crams with the AI’s help, scores 98 points to crush everyone, and publicly humiliates Zhao. When hooligans harass Su Qingyue off-campus, the AI instantly becomes a combat coach, turning Lin Fan into a kung fu guy protecting his girl — his boyfriend material level maxes out! For the rooftop confession, he has his roommates use a drone to display "Lin Fan ❤ Su Qingyue" with colored lights, mixing romance with absurdity.
Throughout the story, AI Xiaoyu is a total devil + comic relief: It tracks rivals with GPS-level precision, loads roast scripts in seconds, and handles everything from date topics to outfit plans to academic knowledge. It pushes Lin Fan from a "three-no otaku" (no social skills, no money, no charm) to campus hunk, top student, and aspiring entrepreneur — and he finally wins over Su Qingyue, marrying her after graduation and building a successful career, becoming a life winner!
The rivals are treated like NPCs getting crushed to social withdrawal: Zhao Tianhao goes from arrogant wealthy kid to a sour grape; Zhang Yang gets academically crushed and runs away; Li Zhe’s speech is ruined by Lin Fan’s goofy stand-up + PDA attack, forcing him to leave dejectedly. All I can say: With an AI cheat code, even socially anxious guys can show off, and poor boys can stage a comeback. This script is all about being "absurd yet addictive, silly yet adorable"!
