Hey there!
I am really astonished about the big amount of alternatives we’ve got in europe.
But I think this is a hard one: Steam.
I have switched from windows to linux a few years ago and I don’t plan to go back. Steam has the advantage of the integrated proton-service which allows playing many windows games on linux.
Do we have something similar?

Good Old Games, or GOG. That’s the only one that I can think of.
only gog
I wish the GoG client supported Linux the same way Steam do.
Lutris really makes it a non-issue.
Good luck. Their website said it’s coming for years, then they quietly dropped the promise.
Didn’t even have the decency to publicly admit they were never going to care about Linux support.
Too bad. One can hope that when Valve release SteamOS for general use, a decent amount of those forced to upgrade to Windows 11 later this year will use SteamOS instead… and maybe that will give Linux some traction amongst gamers. But it might also not.
Well you can use lutris or bottles and the high seas.
Yer see that mighty ol boat ove ther, she aching to leve the doks
You can still buy games in stores.
GOG is the closest we got. All games on there are DRM-free. No direct Proton- or Linux-integration but you can use Heroic Launcher for that.
Thanks! It’s something. I will take a look at this!
Besides gog there is also itch.io
Made by a single dude I think 'murican, but all drm free and stuff, mostly indie games, but also the big indie games. And linux client (albeit a little but buggy).
