I will say Proton is really great these days, and I get excellent performance in the games I care about. But personally, I would wait to try until they work out some problems with the new UI.
Under Xorg, can’t select items from any steam drop down menu (game properties, etc). Works if you enter Big Picture mode though.
Someone reported the overlay problem back in the UI beta and Valve just… ignored it and proceeded with launch. It’s been 3 weeks and I still can’t use the overlay in my main game (Hunt Showdown) because of this. Pretty shocking tbh, I’ve never had a steam stability issue of this magnitude that wasn’t fixed within a day.
