Since lutris has gone slop mode I want to find an alternative, but I am yet to find a client that can automatically download, setup and update my itch.io library (the official itch.io software fucking sucks)

Why not use the official app? https://itch.io/app

He says that he doesn't like the official software.

I know it's unrelated to the original question, but.. What are the issues with the original software? Am I missing out on something if I keep using it?

Yes, and I ask why he does not like and use it. What's the issue with it? Would be good to know for myself. Plus, if we know whats the issue with the official software, we can make better recommendations.

Adding them to steam as a non-steam game, you can run them with proton as well

I've never used it, but:

Says that it's a Rust-based command-line client, which is probably the sort of thing that I'd use myself, if I were on the hunt for a client, sorta analogous to

Itch has their own launcher that supports Linux. Should be on their download client page.

Everything is a religion now. Apparently people need that. Sad state we are in as a society if we have to pick such battles and fight each other instead of dealing with the real socio economic issues.

Forget LLM code, the developer purposefully removed code crediting to Claude so that users don’t know which code is human and which is LLM generated
Aside from LLM code that’s just shit transparency

Bruh.
do you realize the damage AI is doing to society?!

We are not talking about chatbots here but about coding agents. Different breeds of tools.
Can AI usage be an issue? Sure, like every tool can be used wrongly and badly. But the tools are there and they won't go away anymore. So we better learn how to use them well than painting the devil on all of them (which would be the religion part).

Im in the AI is a tool camp but right now AI is a tool that still needs massive improvement before it can be reliably used. Thats all a lot of the AI hate comes from. People are using such an underdeveloped tool to work on projects and barely testing them. When a problem happens the best case is a minor glitch or it just breaks the software. Worst case you create latent security vulnerabilities

There's a difference though between using agent generated code as is (vibe coding) and using vetted and refined agent generated code. The author of Lutris seems to understand that important difference. He even highlights that he doesn't trust these tools.

For actually running the games, I've been using Heroic. That doesn't solve the problem of actually downloading them though.
