And you suppose lutris adds random bloat to make things launch much slower than they actually would, because they decided that's what people would expect from a game launcher? Like, what exactly would that be? Mind you, this is explicitly about game startup time, not lutris itself. I started out doing what you suggest here, but it's a ducking pain in the butt after a while, every couple months there is a new version of X, then Y is deprecated and you should switch to Z... I do this kind of crap as my day job already, no need to keep going in the evening when I just want to have some fun with friends.

Not sure what the reasons above are for Lutris being slow but they are not game launching as that post mentions. I prefer to control it myself. The way it's set up - I have a common launcher script and each game has a config file with a bunch of variables. Haven't needed to update those config files for games much after they are set up, so not sure what your particular X or Y issues are, especially something that happens every couple of months.
