Too bad, I use Steam and it works wonderfully on Linux, but i don't want it to be the only option.

    Neither do I but it is. GOG doesn't support Linux. Heroic is a 3rd party community effort. Valve is currently the only company making financial investments into Linux gaming.

    It does support Linux: it lets you download Linux installer for games that have a Linux port.

    The lack of GOG Galaxy on Linux just means you have to manually manage your games.

    Many more companies than Valve are making financial investments into Linux gaming, including companies that own various Linux distributions (Red Hat, Canonical, etc.), CodeWeavers (who amongst other things have been contracted by Valve on a lot of Proton work) and to a lesser extent Humble Bundle.
