FOSS things to do

Corectrl

StarCitizen LUG

Lutris

Heroic Games Launcher

ProtonUp-QT

MangoHUD

Stay out of Wine Dependency hell

Feral game mode

Bottles

Streaming to Steam Deck
For an Nvidia host or the SteamDeck or receiving device one would use Moonlight

AMD host computer Sunshine

Fedora copr

If you experience the same Steam issue due to multiple GPUs the fix is “cp /usr/share/applications/steam.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/steam.desktop
sed s/PrefersNonDefaultGPU=true/PrefersNonDefaultGPU=false/ -i ~/.local/share/applications/steam.desktop”
