    You can run ESO with Steam's ProtonDB .
    Here is the link : https://www.protondb.com/app/306130
    ESO rated with gold means run very well , with some problems .
    I formatted to Linux because f.... Windows 11 , and run smoothly . I wanted to ask how you manage your addons .

    I know plenty of people running ESO in Linux. It is not supported natively, and you are on your own for support, but it can be done.

    That is a false statement there. I've been running ESO online for over three years on my gentoo linux system.

    ESO ran better on Linux with Proton than it did on Windows for me.

    They can't officially say it's compatible, because then they would be required to support it.

    I think that they may be required to say that since it's not supported, unfortunately.
