So far the game has been running continuously for 4 hours without freezing and without flying objects (stones and trees).
Thanks to mixing Proton 5.9-GE-6-ST with d3d12.dll from Proton 5.9 Solance Edition

If you don't want to download the entire 250MB Proton, you can only download d3d12.dll from Proton 5.9 Solance Edition

Tested on Nvidia graphics card. I have not checked how it works on AMD.

I'm just going to leave this here for anyone who might wonder upon it to try and get the game working:

Use Proton 5.9-GE-S-ST, instructions on how to install it are here.
If you use the NVIDIA drivers, update them to version 450.66. If you are on Ubuntu, you can use the graphics-drivers PPA to get them:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-450

Copy Horizon Zero Dawn/Tools/ShaderCompiler/PC/10.0.18362.0/x64/d3dcompiler_47.dll to Horizon Zero Dawn/d3dcompiler_47.dll, next to the executable.

Optional: I'm not sure if this actually affects anything, but I have also upgraded my kernel from 5.4 to 5.8.

However, as of right now for me:

The performance at 1080p for me on Ultra is literally a slideshow.
The game starts off in borderless mode, but trying to switch to fullscreen mode just results in crashing for me at the minute.
Others have also said that borderless is quite glitchy at the minute (e.g. flying rocks and trees), so the current workaround is to switch to windowed mode.
