SteamLauncher
- Steam controller setup and launchbox
-
To get all these controllers to to play nice with each other on one pc took 5 seperate retroarch installs running independent from one another, usb hub with switches, wii u adapter, and a fancy frontend to tie all this mess together, haha. But without RetroArch...this would not be possible at all
I use the SteamLauncher plugin for Launchbox, because Steam is excellent for controller configs, and Retroarch sucks at it.

I made a proof of concept for running Epic Store Games from Steam Deck UI
You could look at using steam api interface IClientShortcuts instead of editing the shortcut file so steam doesnt need to be restarted. You can add/remove nonsteam games instantly etc. For example SteamLauncher plugin (c#) (https://github.com/lahma0/SteamLauncher) for LaunchBox does this. (Do note it does things a bit differently and uses one hidden shortcut for all games but you could create one for each game of course)

Steam > Big Box > Dolphin Issue
However, there is the excellent Big Box plugin SteamLauncher that you may be into. All the benefits of Steam's controller customization and social stuff while using Launchbox's... uh, launcher.

Tags no longer register and i've finally had it with galaxy 2.0. Any recommended alternatives?
Heroic Games Launcher: Support is limited to Epic, GOG and Amazon but the advantage is that it can manage their games itself without the need of their own launchers. Doesn't have support for tags currently.

Making the switch - what are the gaps?
For "normal" games you could look yourself using ProtonDB regarding every game released on Steam and AreWeAntiCheatYet for most multiplayer games. If a game isn't available on Steam you have three possibilities. First if it's available on GOG, Epic Games or Amazon Gaming, you could use the Heroic Games Launcher. Second you could try to run the launchers through Steam itself using once again Proton. Third you could try installing it with a script or tutorial in Lutris or Bottles.

I just bought a steam deck for my 15yo’s bday present - now what?
Maybe also look into HeroicGamesLauncher and how to install it, Steam isn't the only platform for gaming and HeroicGamesLauncher help with the following platform: GoG (Good Old Games) and EGS (Epic Game Store).
- According to a survey, only 36% of PC gamers buy games at full price.
