Paid product? I'm not sad, we already have Heroic Games Launcher for free, and it works just fine.

I didn't agree with it being a paid product either. And I might have been misunderstanding so don't take my word on this, but I think it was originally open source and free (at least in money, not sure about freedom) ~~for those running Bazzite~~ and primarily designed for Bazzite Linux and that they planned to keep supporting that version, so I feel like all that would do for the Steam Deck is incentivize people to install Bazzite Linux on it so that it would be free.

It's available as a open source Decky plugin, but the steam version was going to be a paid closed source rewrite.
