From their about-page:
We make games last forever
A home for building and playing your curated game collection, GOG is a digital distribution platform that puts gamers first and respects their need to own games.
GOG.com is Part of Polish CD PROJEKT group.
Of course, Steam Linux support is miles ahead
Frankly, both are good options. Valve has done so much for linux gaming, and CDPR has done a lot for game preservation and DRM-free gaming. I've bought plenty of games from both.
Installing GOG on the Steam Deck is easy peasy with NonSteamLauchers.
Gog actually semi-officially partners with heroic games launcher, whose linux support is even better than steams imo
what do you mean by that?
Heroic/Minigalaxy/Lutris + Gog is just on equal footing.
Yes, but that is not GOG supporting Linux. Steam on the other hand goes out of their way to support Linux. And the solution you mentioned wouldn't even be working all that well if steam hadn't brought proton to the scene. I know wine has been there forever, but only since proton the game compatibility shot through the roof.
Interesting, I thought that Steam more advanced thanks to Proton
I was trying to boot this on the PC connected to the TV, and I couldn't figure out how it replaces Big Picture mode/SteamOS.
I had a look at Bazzite but that doesn't provide anything other than the usual keyboard only interfaces. Do you have any instructions on how to do this?
streets ahead*
