They've been too busy doing god's work to get around to something like making an icon 🫡
But seriously: I think the icon looks nice 🙂
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Proton, the compatibility layer that allows Windows games to run on Steam Deck / Linux PCs didn't actually have a proper logo for over 5 years.
Not everything actually needs a logo of course, but it did feel somewhat odd for a piece of software so essential to Valve's plans to just be completely blank on that.
With all the entries of Proton in Steam just showing up blank with their name and version, it was about time Valve made it at least a tiny bit prettier don't you think?
Hard to imagine trying to game on Linux without it now, it's so incredibly useful and just amazing tech.
Proton is a true blessing, enabling tens of thousands of games to work on Linux systems like the Steam Deck.
I guess I can finally retire the silly little placeholder logo I threw out a long time ago when I needed something for it.
