Any viable alternatives to Lutris? Please don’t say Hero Launcher.
What kind of alternative are you searching for? What feature set do you want?
There are a few things like Bottles, Heroic, gamehub, playonlinux, etc...
I think bottles is the best recommendation. Gamehub isnt being developed anymore as far as i can tell and playonlinux was last updated 6 years ago.

Something that works as well as Lutris does on the Steam Deck in terms of ease of use and being able to get all my old windows games working with minimal effort.
I've been using Faugus and so far never had an issue.
