That's great and all, but the Wine devs deserve much more credit. Proton is just like the icing on top.

You're massively simplifying it. Proton is a lot more than just "icing" on the top.

while it's definitely not just icing on the cake, they were definitely standing on the shoulders of giants.

No one is denying that. I'm certainly not, and it's not the point of the article either. But people just seem to want to complain, and refuse to just take the win. As always.
