Lutris has always been a bit hit-or-miss for me, I avoided it unless it was the only option, as it only worked half the time. I don't want it to come off like it shouldn't exist, as stuff making Linux easier to use is great, but I don't use it at all in my current workflows.

I guess I've just been behind the times, but I've never had an incentive to switch. I just installed faugus and transferred everything over and it seems very slick. It seems to be missing 1 or 2 things, like environment variables per-game, but all the other important stuff seems to be here. I know what I'm doing with prefixes so having all the knobs to turn is great, but honestly linux gaming does not need most of those knobs nowadays.

How does transferring work?

I only have 2 or 3 things in lutris.

[–] CoyoteFacts@piefed.ca 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I just did it manually, pointing faugus at the old prefixes and setting the launch options the same

Sick. Thanks. I'll do the same.
