Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance Forever
Supreme Commander has been a very fun RTS - that barely worked on Windows.
FAF, or Forged Alliance Forever brought it back to life with my friends, where it rebuilt lobbies, shored up a lot of the patchy netcode, and made it fun - but as we know modding and linux gaming can be tedious.
Until I found this repo, where FAF now fully "supports" Linux! It was such a breeze, it found my Steam install, my copy of Forged Alliance, and it set everything else up. Huge kudos to the maintainer!

Bazzite: Steam won't launch games from ext4 secondary drive
I finally took the time to move my gaming rig to Bazzite because I don't boot it that often, and because I don't want to spend half the little time I have for gaming doing updates and maintenance.
Most of my games are on an ext4-formatted secondary drive. Note: They worked perfectly on Manjaro and Nobara, the previous distros I used on this machine.
They are recognized by Steam, I can install and uninstall games just fine, it's just that... they don't launch. At all. Native or Proton. Like if I was on an exFAT partition. The "Launching" button switches back to "Play" almost instantly. If I move a game to my main home partition, it launches fine.
Has anyone encountered this issue before?
Where/how could I get detailed logs to try and pinpoint the issue?
Thanks!
