Yes.

Actually.

I use Bottles for windows games that I don't have on steam or GOG.

In that case, something is invalidating the login. Are you sure that it is happening due to leaving your LAN, and not just coinciding with that?

Does restarting the laptop log you out, or temporarily disconnecting from the internet? Could you test by switching to a wifi hotspot on your phone, and switching back, for example?

The client stores your session token in the OS credentials manager (kwallet for linux kde, for example) and the issue can lie there, as well.

That's definitely not how it should work. Leaving your LAN should not invalidate a session.

Is this in your browser, or are you talking about the desktop client?

Flathub and the AUR are by far the most comprehensive, and flatpaks works on a lot of distros. So I checked those.

They've also been getting their kinks worked out over the last few years and work much better than they used to.

That review you found is two years old and was for version 1.1. Current version is 1.4. Try it out today, if it's been fixed leave another review letting people know. It seems to work just fine for me.

Material Maker is on Flathub, the AUR, and on Snapcraft (not up to date, but you shouldn't use snap anyway).

No need for a manual install.

You'll find a lot of software is available via package managers. Linux people don't like installing anything without it being managed by a package manager so the installation and subsequent updates are automatic and occur alongside system updates. So when people find software they like, they'll go out of their way to package and distribute it for others as well

Yes. But you didn't.

Knowing what something does is important.

If you install a piece of software expecting it to do something it actually doesn't, that can leave a security gap.

I wasn't just correcting you. I was making sure you knew that if you install a "firewall" it won't do the thing you're looking for.

As for an actual answer, most distros will already ask you to confirm if you try to run a random appimage you downloaded.

But you shouldn't need to do that in the first place. On linux, there's not really any need to go running random programs downloaded using your web browser, since you can just download software from trusted reposotories that aren't going to host malware to begin with.

Unlike on windows... You don't need to risk it in the first place.

What.

The fuck.

A dev that actually went through the trouble of compressing their game?

Impressed slow clap.

"Is... Is it food-a-clock?"

"Very goood! Only you're three hours late. Now get to it."

First, they came for our GPUs

And I'm telling you a firewall won't do that.

It won't have anything to say at all about something you download and run.

It's a completely different security feature. It handles potentially malicious network activity. Not software on your computer.

It's not federated tho?

What do they mean when they call it that?
