Improved Wine gaming with exeCute
I've tried LutrisWine and flatpak-wine, and to me, they're just finicky even compared to running using Bottles. I had some issues with Bottles, but with it now having a bottle-chooser when opening .exe from file manager, it works well enough most of the time, for most people.
