    Not exactly. Proton is a Wine fork which Valve have stated they intend to merge back into Wine in the future (since they’re working on it with CodeWeavers). If you look at the code in GitHub, they’ve made a lot of changes to Wine and they’re not fully tracking Wine main (looks like they’re porting instead).

      I know it’s a fork building on top of Wine, but I didn’t find mention of them wanting to merge the project back into vanilla Wine. Just talk about them rebasing to Wine 11 eventually.
