While I liked it, the lack of controller support made me switch to Playnite back in my Windows gaming days.

Playnite is awesome. One of the few pieces of software I really miss having on the Linux side of things.

Once you have it set up, you truly have everything gaming in one launcher. Non-steam-VR platforms, emulators, etc.

And I liked the UI a lot better than Galaxy, too, but that’s more subjective.

Lutris is not a valid alternative for Linux?

Integrate with just about anything except Linux?

Have they fixed integrations? A few years ago, all integrations consistently were breaking one by one,which made the usage very frustrating

A lot of these are specific to the integration. I had to uninstall the steam one and then install a newer fork.
