There have been a number of posts on Lemmy about how to get it to work with non-Steam games, particularly if you also have Steam installed. This may be easier on Linux than on Windows.
I was thinking about getting one, but then I read more about it and realised you can’t use it without the Steam client. Kind of put me off since I have a large part of my library on GOG. Maybe this won’t be a problem in the future though.

It does feel like a slap in the face that they didn’t give it general Linux compatibility…

Can’t you add non-Steam games to Steam?

Yep! You absolutely can.

Not all work properly.
Pretty much any game with a launcher or a splash screen won’t work right.

That’s not entirely accurate at all. I’ve yet to have a single title not work even if launched outside of steam (but added as a game within steam).

Gamepass baby. The only ones I can’t get working. Have to use third party tool to convert steam input to xinput device.
I however don’t bother since I also own an Xbox Elite 2 controller with a wireless adapter that works natively in any gamepass title.

Luckily, GOG games don’t have those extra DRM launchers
