So I recently decided to jump ship to Ubuntu 23.10 beta just because of the fact that it has a kernel 6.5 kernel that helps my issues with Starfield not launching (would’ve just gone the PPA route, but it’s close enough to 23.10’s launch date I figured I’ll just jump ship

Are there plans on working with Valve and the community working on Proton/Linux gaming to improve the latest supported kernels in Ubuntu to make sure that it works amazing with the latest games without needing to install PPAs? Or adding newer kernels without waiting for a new release, like Pop!_OS? IIRC, I remember the reason why this was never done is because of all the patches you do on Ubuntu, but I think it’s time to revisit that.
Newer kernels tend to resolve a lot of the issues Linux games experience, unless you’re Valve who customized the kernel for gaming purposes.
I debated on posting it here instead, but I figured since the update to the latest kernel solved my problems, I figure I’ll do it here.
