https://freelinuxpcgames.com/ the website doesn't look malicious but would like if anyone has proof otherwise I know there's torminatorr, but I would like some direct download websites for Linux since I can't seed while pirating because my ISP has limited bandwidth of 1 TB and my fascist country Iran has $300 minimum wage and I have better ways to use that than seeding, but I don't like leeching EDIT: seems the website is malicious I guess I'm forced to leech or use proton with steamrip games

jc141 release on 1337x are the best, no install, minimal space used and you can keep seeding without wasting space on a useless-after-first-use installer.

For instance jc141 release of Silksong is 1.9Gb
while fitgirl version is 1.6Gb installer + 7.6Gb installed.
