hperrinLutris dev says he's cool with AI generated bugs because his code is already full of bugs
I wonder if Bazzite will stop shipping Lutris because of this
TALL421I never really used Lutris, but I liked what it was for so I never removed it, but when the news broke I went and took the 3 seconds to uninstall it
Last time I’ve tried Bazzite, Lutris was installed as a system package, so you can’t easily uninstall it without rebasing the system image
Personally I didn’t like Lutris’ reliance on Proton and the Steam runtimes, at this point I could just use Steam directly as my launcher for third-party titles

What exactly are the alternatives? Wine isn’t optimized for gaming and Wine-GE isn’t being developed anymore in favor of Proton-GE.

Lutris is much more light-weight than Steam, which is basically just six chrome processes at this point.
And how do you do that? Everything I saw said “Don’t, it’s too difficult. And if you do, your system will just run worse than if you ignore that it exists.”
I’ve enjoyed Bazzite in my first few months off of Windows, but between this and a few minor annoyances with just how immutable an immutable distro is, I’m having second thoughts on my choice of distro.

Southern WolfThey better not… Its far to fundamental to the system to get eid of it over proclivities about AI.
KoryThey are thinking about this for a while now, in January they announced: “Lastly and on an unrelated note, we’ve also begun testing Faugus Launcher as a potential replacement for Lutris in our :testing branch. If we move forward with this change, we’ll provide at least six months of advance notice before removing Lutris so you’ll have plenty of time to migrate your prefixes.”
A brighter future for Bazzite
Hi everyone! We wanted to share an update on the future of Bazzite and where we’re headed next.
