A low-friction Linux gaming setup

  1. Start with Steam Play. Enable Proton in Steam settings, then use ProtonDB reports before installing large Windows-only games.
  2. Add Heroic or Lutris. Use Heroic for Epic, GOG, and Amazon libraries; use Lutris for runners, emulators, and community install scripts.
  3. Keep native games visible. Mix itch.io Linux builds and free open-source titles into the same library so Linux-native games do not get buried.
