GoG survey: Time to nag them about Linux support
Minigalaxy is great for native apps. Lutris is hit or miss for wine/DVXK.

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.

Valve has set the bar pretty high, but It'd be nice if anyone else at least did the bare minimum
The official client isn't, but there is a 3rd party one available for Linux https://github.com/sharkwouter/minigalaxy

Thinking of switching to linux
So long as you have a Vulkan capable GPU, you should be able to get almost all GOG games working. You could use Lutris with GOG Galaxy, Lutris with GOG offline installers or MiniGalaxy.

I'm thinking of changing over to Linux exclusively for a gaming exclusive set up. Is this sensible or should I remain on Windows?
HeroicGamesLauncher / MiniGalaxy: Launcher alternative for the EpicGamesLauncher / GoG.
- Minigalaxy version 1.2.2 released

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.

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.
