I would like a Proton for professional tools other than Crossover. Centered in compatibility with Cadence Allegro, Altium and other EDA/CAD tools.

That would be great, but weren't Cadence tools Linux-native? At the University, I used Cadence Virtuoso on CentOS machines and Solaris servers.
Agilen's/Keysight's ADS has official support for RHEL, though.

You joke but looking it up, I think it's one of, if not the best "Riichi Mahjong" (Japanese multiplayer variant instead of solitaire) game on Steam, as there are only a handful of those and two of them are only against CPU opponents. Also, as this might be misunderstood: it does not look like a lewd title and actually looks decent with good animations. Only downside is that it's not available in English but you can try out how it works as long as you want as it's free-to-play (with gacha mechanic but apparently only for cosmetics).
