GOG previously said they planned to look closer at Linux, and that it was the next major frontier - and they're now working towards GOG Galaxy on Linux.
What is gog galaxy? I’ve never used gog since I haven’t had a PC capable of running games until recently and I have no money lol, so I’m not really familiar with them beyind hearing people talk about them
GOG doesn’t have DRM. You can use a FOSS launcher if you like, this is just another option. I’ll keep using Heroic myself, but I’m happy to have their effort on linux in general, even if I won’t directly benefit from this application.

You’re a store, stop trying to be more than that.
If it handles proton or whatever it will be viable for less technically adept which is a good thing
Heroic already covers that market.

It’s their launcher.
Incidentally if you have no money and only a potato PC, GOG should have been your first address for games.
Lol, thats good to know!
I have a slightly better PC now, but still no money 😅
It’s their launcher and handles their DRM.

Oh? They removed “requires gog galaxy” from their games? (most didn’t have this)
So it’s just third party DRM then, my mistake.
Some have. Was a bit of drama on Gog the last few years.
