[Epic Games] Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel (Free/100%)
Personally I use legendary which is basically just a super-lightweight commandline launcher that also handles stuff like setting up wine if running on linux. But if you don't want quite that bare-bones, there's also a couple of GUI wrappers: rare is a fairly lightweight native app that feels pretty snappy, though it can be a bit unpolished in places, and heroic, which is an electron app and so a bit more heavyweight. but more of a direct drop-in replacement.

Mullvad in GTA Online
There's also a 3rd-party Epic client Legendary which has a couple of GUIs like Rare and Heroic, which may work differently with mullvad's split-tunnel.

An Epic Failure (Epic Games Launcher issues from my perspective)
Legendary, Rare and Heroic are good alternatives.

Just gonna leave this here
Also if you don't want to use cmd commands you can find some tools that give you a simple interface, I made one for windows and there is another one called rare that supports windows and linux.

An actual fix for the insanely slow download/update speeds of Epic Games Launcher (Re-uploaded)
Alternatively, you can use another launcher. This is what I do and have zero download issues. https://github.com/derrod/legendary https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher https://github.com/Dummerle/Rare

Easy Anti-Cheat not as simple as expected for Proton and Steam Deck
Ah, yeah the software and software support is miles better. Epic Games Store is frankly poorly made software. I thus recommend everyone who wishes to run it to instead run Heroic or Rare instead, regardless of OS.

This is goodbye, but is it forever?
E.g. Minigalaxy offers many of GoG Galaxys features (Tagging /u/anevilduck here in case he doesn't know it) and only has around 13500 lines of Code.

I'm thinking of changing over to Linux exclusively for a gaming exclusive set up. Is this sensible or should I remain on Windows?

Playnite 10 has been released. Open source video game library manager.
Besides there are other projects like https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy that has some of their coding from PlayNite and of their own to work on Linux and there are Tutorials like https://playnite.link/forum/thread-1156.html to make it work nonetheless. Also thanks to Steam's Proton layering, everything is easier at Linux gaming side.

Wine, Winetricks, Wineglass
There are plenty of ways to use GoG on Linux. You could download offline installers of games and run them with Lutris. In fact, Lutris seems to have it's own GoG integration (I haven't tried this though). Otherwise e.g. minigalaxy exists.
- For those who use Linux, which OS? I am looking for something that can do gaming & school work. I am a beginner.

GOG-Client MiniGalaxy
I am new to Bodhi-Linux and I would like to know if there is a way to install the Gog client MiniGalaxy (https://sharkwouter.github.io/minigalaxy/) in Bodhi-Linux. I couldn't find it in the package management and I'm not very familiar with compiling it myself.

Heroic Games Launcher is now on Flathub!
As someone who already uses MiniGalaxy, is there any benefit of also using Heroic Launcher? It appears the two install games differently, as Heroic cannot detect MG's installed games. My primary purpose is simply an installer which I can link via Steam for Steam Input (for my steam controller primarily, but also so I remember to play my darn games).
