If you've made the switch, that year was the year of the Linux desktop! ✨

Maybe the year of the Linux desktop was the journey we met along the way.

Regular Steam and Heroic over here 👌✨

I ought to try heroic launcher. I had mitigated results with Lutris and I don't know if it's caused by i3wm or not.

[–] Eldritch@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Heroic is freaking awesome. I never had much luck with lutris though it's been a long time since I ever tried it. With heroic. I use it to manage all the free games I get through the Epic store and Amazon over 700 now. And it works on both windows and Linux flawlessly for the most part. With the check of a setting it will even add games to steam for you so if you just leave it running in the background you can start and play games through Steam just like they were installed there.
