Maybe the author of the article/blog doesn’t know about Heroic?

They mention lutris, but note that it isn’t a functional equivalent to Galaxy. But as far as I’m aware, Heroic is (correct me if I’m wrong, I haven’t seen Galaxy in action).

I found Heroic today. Same games that won't run on Lutris won't run on Heroic either. The biggest disappointment was that it crashed a few times and I gave up entirely when it froze up. I'm not saying Lutris is flawless, it certainly isn't, but my experience overall has at least been acceptable.
