Interestingly it was more or less the same on Reddit as well.
Glad that worked! For some reason, Battle-net does not work well with regular Wine for some time now. It works but when there is a new agent update for Battle-net, it gets borked and either can be fixed with a complete reinstall or as a temporary fix, symlink the new agent to the old one. Anyway, these problems are not present with GE-Proton. Heroic made this easy by adding built-in downloader for GE-Proton. I guess it would be nice if Lutris does a similar thing.
Lutris would also work if you set GE-Proton on it too. From its hamburger menu, go to Preferences, go to Runners tab, find Wine way below the list, open its settings (left button), and select GE-Proton as your Wine version. It will detect if you put it one on Steam's /compatibilitytools.d/ directory, or you can manually select your preferred directory by enabling advanced options too.
If it works on Heroic, you don't need to do this of course. I just wanted to let you know that it's possible on Lutris too. I think Lutris needs a built-in GE-Proton downloader just like Heroic.

It's hilarious that we live in different worlds. I have no idea what are those Fortnite or Overwatch copies. I have no interest in hero-shooters or battle-royale genres too.
That's a great piece!
No problem! One of the strongest aspects of Linux is, there are too many tools to choose. There is no best one, but there is a best one for you out there. So it's always good to try out tools people suggest, until you settle on one of them.
I also suggest to check out btop's options. There are many built-in themes and some customization options.
While currently using KDE out of laziness, I prefer using a standalone window manager (current favourite is river). It's all about personal preferences. If you don't like a DE in its entirety, you make yourself one. :)
I think Gnome Disks has the best GUI for managing disks.
Even though my favourite file manager is Thunar, Dolphin has the best customization options.
btop is the bestest system monitor for me.
For calculator, I would suggest to try galculator.
Once you get used to terminals, you'll have your preferences. I like foot. For most people, default ones suffice.
The simplest yet best disk usage analyzer is gdu / in my opinion.
The best video player is mkv. I have my own configs, so it's even better for me.
Have no opinion over emoji selector or clipboard history. :)
Even on KDE, I still use fuzzel instead of KDE's menu or Krunner though.
