Game works nicely, just had to set the proton version to 8.0-5 and it worked, all graphics and audio settings work fine, game preforms better than on windows, just note you might not get HDR to work. I have also verified mods work as normal as well ;)

I have the game through rockstar launcher, so I used proton tricks to install the launcher
I own the game through Rockstar Launcher instead of Steam. The preformance when using Lutris or Heroics Game Launcher was rather buggy. So I added the RDR2.exe as a non-steam game, used proton tricks to install the laucher to that prefex, than changed the exe path from rdr2.exe to the launcher.exe. The preformance and stability using proton through steam for rdr2 was so much better than through other means. Note: I used a syslink to link the folder of rdr2 install to my prefex. It was not found right away so I installed rdr2 and it was found immediatly after. You do have make sure the syslink is the same as the default install ofc
You will have to play with settings to get the game to work well, but generally it shouldn't take anymore than a 5-10min websearch
PROTON_USE_EAC_LINUX=1 DXVK_ASYNC=1
There is noticable stutter here and there, it is still playable stutter
Using anything but TAAU in graphics settings crashes the game.
I would suggest adding clearcpuid=304 as a kernal arguement(boot argument) and setting your system variable and value to vm.max_map_count=2147483642, which how to do that can be found by pasteing those things into a search engine and adding "how to set 'your os' "
Otherwise, i was able to even enable raytracing and other features in game stayed stable (just stay away from that resultion scaling option)
