Okay my bad, I think I just misunderstand BSD-3 and read somewhere that Proton is Valve's proprietary software. In terms of open source software, the only licenses I'm really familiar with are GNU, Apache, and MIT. So I read one thing online saying Proton was proprietary and assumed BSD-3 was a proprietary license without looking into it further.

Tbf if wine were released under regular GNU instead of LGPL, Valve wouldn't have been able to make Proton proprietary, and so their contributions would also be open source. It is unfortunate that this is the situation, but by using the LGPL license WINE basically permitted this, no?
