It doesn’t meet your high standard and that’s okay. I prefer to count my blessings in this regard.

GOG is funding the FOSS Heroic Games Launcher through an affiliate partnership: https://heroicgameslauncher.com/donate
You legally didn’t “own” your physical games either if you haven’t noticed.
It’s not legally binding, since it isn’t part of the user agreement you review when buying games on Steam.
When have they not had the full package on GOG?
There really is no difference. For almost all intents and purposes, GOG’s offline installers can be treated the same way as physical CDs of way back then, with one of the only exceptions being that you cannot resell them.
Nowadays the Heroic Games Launcher is the preferred solution for downloading and running GOG games. It’s a community-run project, but officially affiliated with GOG.

I switched to Pass recently after having used Bitwarden for a couple years. I’d say Bitwarden still has a slight edge in terms of features, but Pass has gotten good enough and it’s included in my Proton subscription.
So why does Proton work on multiple products at the same time? Simply because:
- throwing more bodies at existing efforts has a point of diminishing returns and then a point when it even becomes counterproductive
- given the lengthy minimum time it takes to perfect services, starting earlier lets us deliver more to the community over the long term
That’s why we bring new services to market earlier than some of you would like, but I can also say that it’s never done if we believe it would compromise an existing effort.

Proton would be absolutely awesome if it stuck to it’s “We’re better than GMail” plan and provided stellar email and calendar.
You’re saying that like those have now gotten worse than they were before.
There are separate mail and VPN plans. What are you upset about?
You might be surprised to find out that, just like everywhere else, Linux users are a minority among the Proton userbase.
Explain.
Because otherwise you’d be supporting the Chromium monopoly, and that’s the biggest sin imaginable in the Fediverse.
Go visit https://fedia.io and then tell them again that they’re on Lemmy.
The developers of Heroic are in regular contact with GOG employees, and they also get a cut from any GOG purchase made through the Heroic client.
