I would bet money that it was because of games that aren't on steam.

Once my mental health doesn't suck so bad anymore, i am considering to use SteamOS (or ChimeraOS where SteamOS is not officially available). Alternatively Kubuntu, because Ubuntu has the most help resources. May not be as fancy as a runit based system like Void Linux but it's fine.

Perhaps, but many people don't realize that "Add Non-Steam Game" also gives you a Proton prefix on Linux, as if it were a Steam game. Can be used for non-DRM games or even another launcher and keep everything relatively tidy.

And theres lutris, which has automated scripts for tons of games to install non-steam games and set them up properly to run.

Didn't get my favorite Sims games to run on Void. And my mental health is so bad, i can hardly deal with failures while tinkering, which is necessary on Linux in conjunction with Windows gaming.
