Best way to backup my GoG offline installer files?
I use https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader it is for Linux however. You can probably run it in WSL though.
-
Why is GOG better than Steam? Why should I prefer GOG?
If you have access to Linux, there's a community tool called LGOGDownloader that can download your whole library or selected parts of it in one go. It can also list any local files that aren't in your GOG account anymore, e.g. older versions of updated games. I use it regularly to keep my offline library of 600+ games up to date.

This is goodbye, but is it forever?
My local GOG library is maintained by the third-party LGOGDownloader. I'm using GOG Galaxy only for a handful of Windows games that do require it for multiplayer.

lgogdownloader broken?
I recently discovered that my GOG downloader (https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader) is currently broken, I've updated to the latest version but it seems GOG changed their API?
- Can you still use the GOG downloader?

Is there a plan to switch to a better installer / setup for offline installation
No idea if it runs on windows, but for linux there is https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader/ i download all my games with this command:
-
vangogh/gaugin - data hoard and browser your GOG.com collection
Nice! How does this compare to lgogdownloader? (https://github.com/Sude-/lgogdownloader)
- Offline Downloaders besides Galaxy (like gogrepro?)
-
Do I have to install galaxy to play my games?
https://sites.google.com/site/gogdownloader/ I found it in my AUR repository so I expect it to be in the repository of whatever distribution you might choose.

GOG answer to steam proton?
There actually is lgogdownloader, which apparently implements part of the GOG Galaxy API, but it seems to only do listing, downloading, and installing of games, and not whatever else Galaxy does.

A New Era for Mixed Reality
The "Metaverse" is a complete joke, and among gamers, Valve has a way better reputation than Meta. Why would they want to dilute that brand?
They already have their own platform (Steam), OS (SteamOS), VR headset (Index), their own Windows translation layer (Proton, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton), their own partnership with cloud gaming (Steam Cloud Play using GeForce Now , https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/cloudgaming), etc.
IMO: As someone with thousands of games on Steam, there's no way in hell I'd want that linked to Facebook. I think they eventually removed the requirement to have a FB account to use a Quest, but they still require a Meta account. Yuck.
This reeks of Facebook recognizing the Metaverse as the failure that it was and opening it up because it's no longer relevant...

NTFS messes up
Did you mount it with the correct flags?
-
How do I use multiple hard drives on Kubuntu for steam?
there is a hack to try and use your existing windows game install from an NTFS drive, but i don't recommend it as steam will try to save file names that are not allowed on NTFS...plus ext4 is faster.

Game crashes within 10 seconds of launching unless I reinstall from scratch
From a quick search, here's what I found. It looks like you're encountering some common issues that can occur with games running on Linux through Proton, especially with the recent updates to games like Satisfactory that might affect compatibility. The log entries you're seeing related to D3DCompile2 failing to compile shader and the issues with Ternary operator and LinearToSrgbBranching not being defined, suggest that there's a problem with shader compilation. This can often be related to the version of Proton or the graphics drivers you are using. Some users have reported that the game does launch with the -vulkan option but with graphical glitches and lower performance, which indicates that the Vulkan renderer is working but possibly not optimally on your setup. From the discussions in the community, users have suggested ensuring that the latest drivers for your graphics card are installed and, if using an Intel GPU, that the Mesa drivers are up to date since Intel XeSS references were found in the logs. If you're using NVIDIA graphics, make sure you have the latest drivers and possibly set the PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% to enable DLSS if you're under Vulkan. If you're using an Optimus laptop with both Intel and NVIDIA GPUs, make sure your Optimus setup is correctly configured. Some users have found success by specifying DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAMES=GeForce to force the game to use the NVIDIA GPU. It's also worth noting that if you're encountering issues with DirectX 11, you might want to try forcing the game to use DirectX 10 if possible or look into DXVK configurations that could resolve compatibility issues. Lastly, if none of these solutions work, you could try running a trace with apitrace to gather more detailed logs that might point to the specific issue. If you're still stuck, it would be a good idea to report the issue to the Proton GitHub page or seek further assistance in the game's community forums where others might have encountered and solved similar issues. For more information and to find others who might have resolved similar issues, check out the community discussions on GitHub, Steam Community, and the DXVK GitHub page.
