Yeah I really enjoy Heroic. I moved to it when Lutris had a bug a couple years ago (hell, might be still in there) where it would flood my DNS server with over 1000 queries in under a second. It took me 2 weeks to really notice what was happening because as soon as it happened, suddenly I had no internet. At the time I was on Pihole which has a default flood control built in.

I kept going down a rabbit hole of researching Linux network problems, tried a dozen fixes, kept happening. Had to be very thorough and pay attention to what I was actively doing/using when it happened.

"Downside" of Heroic is I no longer have Ubisoftsupport. Also, fuck Ubisoft anyhow.
