I already stopped using Lutris for a while. Most of the things I try to install with it straight up don't work anymore.

Edit:

Anyway, is there an alternative to Lutris, besides installing games and programs with Steam?

Bottles or Heoric Game Launcher

Heroic is great. Bottles has the potential to be great but it needs umu, and I'm skeptical about them rewriting the project (rewrites are seldom a good sign of a FOSS project in my experience).

They already re-written it, or did they say they're going to re-write it?
