Whatis the best alternative to lutris?
Bottles and Heroic are two great options that I preferred even before this slop sign
Faugus Launcher is getting to be popular.

Has most options that Lutris or Bottles present in their GUI at this point with less cruft like adding entire game libraries from other clients or the mostly useless and often outdated install scripts.
Gamescope doesn't work yet, despite having a toggle for it according to their github readme.
I've been using cartridges for a while now.
