It was already better as the games it sells are free of Digital Restrictions Management

Funny how people like it when they actually provide value to you instead of only forcing an ad delivery/data collection tool on you, right?

Correct me if I’m wrong: if you’re a linux gamer then GOG doesn’t support your platform, no?

To my knowledge the client (gog galaxy) doesn’t work. But the binary installers the actual games you buy can still work.

They only support like a dozen different currencies, everyone else has to buy it in USD. If there implementation sucks, then it might as well not exist for us ignored by gog.
