Is Pegasus the best Steam alternative for launching games with a gamepad? (pegasus-frontend.org)

I'm sorting out my collection of native games and ROMs, Pegasus requires some forethought to customize the collections as I want but it seems like the best option. Do you know of interesting and equally customizable alternatives like Pegasus that are not proprietary and are comfy with the gamepad?

ES-DE is probably the fastest to setup

There's any flatpak? (edit) Ok there's an AppImage. Btw looks like it can't see my games.

You need to put games into specific folders, but that's the whole setup. Everything else is automated.

For PC games you can put the .desktop shortcut files for the games into the steam folder
