@TheEvilSkeleton I have GOverlay packaged in my NUR repo, but I don't think it would make sense to submit a pull request until MangoHud and vkBasalt are in nixpkgs.

I appreciate it a lot. Unfortunately, I left NixOS and switched to Fedora due to having so many issues with gaming, Lutris, GNOME, etc. I'm still looking forward to this. Thank you so much

@TheEvilSkeleton Aww that's frustrating, NixOS can definitely be a pain some times, but I find it worth it. Hopefully we will see you back again when things are better. I'm not a huge gamer, but I've managed to deal with all the issues I've had so far with gaming and I would be willing to help if you started trying it out again.

@MetaDark I'm planning to join back anyway sooner or later. I love configuration.nix, and Flatpak has helped a LOT. The only the problem currently is that there's no official Lutris Flatpak, so I can't really play any games from Lutris since the official package in nixpkgs was quite broken

@TheEvilSkeleton The only issue I had with Lutris was that it crashed when the file dialog was opened, but that was fixed in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/91466. Did you have any other problems?

[TheEvilSkeleton]

@MetaDark Lutris was just not launching games, but I will try it someday, once I have the time for that.

I just realized that I could've and should've created an issue when I had this problem
