proton without newell is proton, but with maybe a different direction

proton without valve's workers and WINE/DXVK contributors is nothing. it's literally nothing.

the same goes for basically any projects. the billionaire CEOs are (sometimes, not even always!) the people who take decisions. everyone else does the work. without the CEOs, the same projects would have decisions taken in other ways. without the workers, there would be nothing.

stop licking billionaire boots.
