So if I turn on the global setting, does it mean it will run native linux games with proton as well? I'm mostly playing rimworld and project zomboid, which have native Linux builds.

Proton is only for running Win32 binaries

I know, I was asking about which version will Steam decide for when I have the global setting on.

Nope, win64 works as well
