please don’t mention Heroic or Lutris because they barely work either

Odd, been enjoying Silksong and earlier Baldur's Gate 3 via Heroic (GOG) and it just works on Linux. Not sure what the 'barely works' part you are talking about is. Hell, half the games I buy are through GOG now. Only one I had to do anything for is Breath of Fire IV, which isn't even offered on Steam...

The part where it barely works. Like maybe 50% of the time. Often enough to not even bother with it and just get my games on Steam where they're always available and always work.

Do you have specific examples of games that didn't work for you?
