Just avoid using the steam overlay, and you should be fine.
Opening a browser window in the Steam overlay causes the framerate to drop significantly -- the more you do in the browser, the worse the performance gets. Accidentally opening one of the steam page, and closing it immediately dropped the performance from solid 60 FPS to something like 40 with weird lag spikes; looking things up in a search engine, and opening a few results can get it well below 1 FPS (only updating the screen once every 5 to 10 seconds).
The occasional bug where the game becomes unable to save your progress happened a couple of times.
Game starts to stutter after an hour or two.
The Windows version through Proton runs better than the native one – the native Linux build is more buggy, has more soft-locks, and lacks support for achievements altogether; if you care about achievements, you'll need to play the Windows version.
Pretty much flawless
I run the Vulkan version, and play with a DS4 controller connected over USB. The controller button layout is recognized correctly, crazy good performance with well over 300 FPS even on an old laptop with a GTX 1060, let alone the primary gaming machine.
The Linux build is simply not on par with other platforms. You're better off just running the Windows build through Proton.
Randomly, the viewport would get split into vertical bars, with heavy color distortion all across the screen, only affecting the game area, rendering the game almost unplayable; menus, HUD and other elements still render correctly. Moving to a different room can sometimes fix things.
Didn't get rumble on a DS4 controller -- possibly an indication that the Linux build is an older one from before they implemented rumble.
While the crashes and graphical glitches were not super-frequent, whenever they happened, they cost a good chunk of progress.
When the save locations were getting unified across platforms, steam sync wiped my latest progress, and overwrote it with an old save from the native version.
Works fantastically as long as you avoid the native version.
