Ubuntu isn't suitable for gaming... or anything at all. It's only really good for corporations because their offer paid support if you get Pro.
Instead, I'd recommend switching to something more optimised for gaming, like Bazzite or Nobara. Both work fine with nVidia cards.
But I also recommend trying a different Proton, like Proton Experimental or Proton-GE, as they often get compatibility updates before mainstream Proton.
I'm on vanilla Ubuntu 22.04 but have also tried vanilla 24.04, with an Nvidia card.
That said, I thought steamdeck was just the handheld device - not sure if this would help with my Ubuntu situation - but I don't know enough about steamdeck so perhaps I am misinterpreting your comment.
Not sure. See if you shift the itch to another game, WoW I know works on Linux always. Diablo 4 in particular won’t even run on a Mac I believe, so they don’t care too much about making that multi platform.
Albion Online is another one with great great portability, literally on everything.

Can't give you any specific help since you didn't specify your problems. However it worked for me in the steamdeck with Proton out of the box.
Fair point.

Thanks either way.

Albion Online looks interesting, thanks, will check it out.
