Do you ever change proton version of games if they run for performance reasons, or do you just stick to the default config?
For example, let's say a game is about a year old, so it would run on an early proton 9. Might changing to GE 10-8 improve performance and battery runtime / FPS?
I started thinking about this when I gave a shot to Wuthering Waves. It runs out of the box, but GPU is a little bit less under pressure with GE 10-8.
What's your take?

Change proton versions for compatibility, not performance

I never notice a performance difference. Just that (for whatever reason) some versions are more stable with certain games

I put everything on Proton Experimental all the time, and only change to an older proton or GE if I'm having a specific compatibility issue.

I mean if you really want to sure. But at that point just start looking into enabling various tweaks manually yourself.
