Haha yeah there are still a couple oddball things like battlenet I use lutris for, but damn if heroic isn’t just easier all the way around.
I’ve never gotten past the “well I tried once and it didn’t work” stage with bottles, maybe one of these days I’ll actually sit down and try to get it working properly.
Yeah both heroic game launcher and lutris will install gog games, heroic is a bit easier though. Then from desktop mode you just right click on the game shortcut and hit “add to steam” so it’ll show up in your steam library (in the non steam games section).
You can also add heroic or lutris to the non steam games section, so that you can use it as a separate game launcher/library manager if you want.
I’ve run alpine on alpine, it works just fine
I usually just pop in an extra disk and install the new distro there, makes it easy to just disconnect the old one when I’m ready
