Steam had a setting where it would only run Proton on games on which it had been verified to work. Some people would inadvertently flip this setting off. Now the setting is gone, so they can’t accidentally do this.
Do you mean the setting called “Enable Steam Play for all titles” that was usually unchecked, that you’d have to go in and check, which some folks wouldn’t do (because they might not have known they were supposed to?)
It was the other way around. The default was to run proton-enabled games, but not random titles, unless you enabled proton for everything via the toggle (“enable for all titles”) which was off by default.
Now it’s on by default and the switch is gone, so it’s can’t inadvertently be switched off.
The title is a bit click-baity.

Mfw i have been going into individual steam properties to select a proton version for all my games for the last 2 years.

Pretty sure this was me the last time I tried Linux gaming before buying the Steam Deck. One more problem solved before I upgrade Windows 10.
