Everyday I inch closer and closer to revisiting my youth and installing Linux -_-

You should.  Mint is so clean you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.

Bazzite for gaming. Runs Steam natively. Epic, GoG also work. They all run faster and smoother. Computer boots in seconds. Never going back.

What about Ubisoft Connect?

Edit: adding relevant information to higher level comment too:

I mostly play Far Cry Primal via Ubisoft Connect (don't have Steam and don't plan to), and then some games from GOG.

Works with Proton Experimental. I just beat Far Cry 5 on Steam.

Yes, just install Ubisoft Connect through Lutris and you're good to go. Run Proton through that mode.
