Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoDo you have an script or a program for create GOL affiliate links from a gog game link?
example: I put https://www.gog.com/game/cyberpunk_2077 [External Link] into the program and the address is converted to https://af.gog.com/game/cyberpunk_2077?as=1636858786 [External Link]
We have a small bit of JS that does it for us that I wrote.

What will be interesting to see is what happens with ChimeraOS once SteamOS 3 gets released
Steam OS 3.0 will be a failure if it doesn't come with another Valve software with the number 3 in the name.

GOG to go through some reorganization after suffering losses

Quoting: AcrophobicIn my case, I only buy from Steam because of the regional pricing. Without Steam's regional pricing, the cost of gaming is too expensive for me so my only choice is either to stop gaming or pirate the game (which almost impossible in Linux).

If GOG start using regional pricing then I might start buying from them. Until then, I'll keep on using Steam.
GOG indeed has regional pricing, but that depends on the publisher and the country.
Here in Argentina, some GOG games are more cheapest than in other countries.

In topic, GOG suffered a massive Cyberpunk 2077 refunds.

Works fine on Gnome 41.1, did not have a single problem and have now played from start to finish, its a short'ish game compared to Homefront 2.
I use Cinnamon. I had to use protontricks and config the game prefix for to use a virtual desktop matching the monitor resolution.

I just tried another CEG game, Sniper Elite V2 and the game laucher load, but the game doesn't.
