Sounds like the OpenWRT Supported Devices list would be more useful if it was more fine grained.

Compare for example this website which lists support for games running under Proton on Linux: https://www.protondb.com/

The ProtonDB website scores the level of support for each game into one of several different categories, ranging from “borked” (broken) up to platinum and native.

They also include a definition of each type of rating that they use on ProtonDB:

> Platinum: Runs perfectly out of the box

> Gold: Runs perfectly after tweaks

> Silver: Runs with minor issues, but generally is playable

> Bronze: Runs, but often crashes or has issues preventing from playing comfortably

> Borked: Either won't start or is crucially unplayable

Thanks for that pointer. A fair comparison.

I guess features like that depend on developers available time and the size of the communities too. My assumption would be the ProtonDB service would have a much larger audience than OpenWRT does, hence the efforts put into the quality of the data.
