I just use Playnite as the frontend for everything and Epic loads a lot faster when the actual client doesn't need to fully kick up. Same for Steam, Ubisoft, EA etc.

Sadly it only supports Windows.

Wouldn't Heroic be a better option on Linux? It supports both Epic and GOG.

I find it to be a nicer library.

Yeah, Playnite certainly is super moddable comparatively.

Playnite looks very good. So it's just a launcher and games manager that doesn't also try to be a store, chat client, advertising platform, and social media site?

Amazing!
