Fortnite is a problem because of kernel level anti-cheat, trying to get it work on Proton....will probably be a long time.

The solution is: buy a Playstation.

Yeah. Consoles should be consoles. It should be considered unacceptable for a general purpose computer to run kernel level DRM.
This is why I consider it a (security) feature that these anti-cheats don’t work on Linux.
What if you want to play with keyboard & mouse?
Many PS5 games have keyboard and mouse support, Fortnite being one of course.
Connect keyboard & mouse to the console
