No memes/shitposts/low-effort posts, please.

That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

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GUI at this point with less cruft like adding entire game libraries from other clients or the mostly useless and often outdated install scripts.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.
