The developers of the unofficial translation layer expansion for the Steam Deck, Proton-GE, set their eyes on non-Steam game compatibility.

There are licenses that allow distribution for free for personal use, but don’t allow distribution without a contract if it’s connected to you selling content in any way.

Ah ok, this makes sense.

Everyone else responding here is essentially making the point that Proton-GE is piracy which I didn’t think would be the case.
