This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Fair enough, I've never really thought of GoG as a launcher, to me it was always more of a storefront.
I actually play most GoG games on Steamdeck through Heroic Launcher and only ever had minor issues with the games not registering SD controls.
Oh, I'm using Heroic for that too, it works well enough. But I was using GoG launcher before switching to Linux, even for Steam games and other storefronts. I would like to keep using it on Linux, hence my previous comment.
I appreciate the enormous work Valve has done for Linux gaming, but I'm also somewhat concerned about Steam being the only storefront that also combines with a Proton-compatible launcher. GoG could be a real competition if they added that option.
