Does it work fine? When I tried prism launcher from .deb package it wouldn't launch correctly. It would close itself complaining about the wayland connection closed. The only way I could fix was by using the Flatpak version and disabling wayland in Flatseal.

I tested it with ubuntu on a macbook m1 and a snapdragon chromebook with no issues, both uses wayland afaik. Don't know about x64
