      GOG released a Windows client, but no Linux client. My problem is with being treated worse than a Windows user.

      In comparison, itch.io has no Windows client and no Linux client (in part because some of the stuff they sell is not software). So I have no problem buying through itch.io.

      I’m not OP but I use GOG significantly less ever since I switched to Linux and got a Steam Deck.

      • Steam has an official Linux client, GOG does not
      • Steam syncs my savegames between PC and Steam Deck out of the box, GOG does not
      • Steam setups all the Proton-stuff and I only have to click play, GOG does not

      I currently use Heroic but until GOG commits some more resources into their Linux ecosystem I’m just going to use them sparingly.
