Although for some of us this is a well-known problem, it has appeared again with the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages so it's worth a quick PSA to remind people about Denuvo activation limits with Proton on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck.

Denuvo strikes again!

    It’s s actually working

    You should keep following your principles, but that’s not the reason it’s working. The amount of gamers that even know about Denuvo is tiny, and those who care enough to not buy a game because of that is an even smaller fraction of that small number.

    The reason is simply because Denuvo is expensive and a recurring cost. Once a developer removes it, they no longer need to pay for it.

      I don’t think that’s true about denuvo specifically. I’ve known some pretty big “normies” for lack of a better term that knoe denuvo makes games run worse.
