Heroic tends to log me out if not used for a bit, (or sometimes, at random it seems) and login with the deck while commute is annoying.

Epic giveaway is just a moral justification to download from torrent and add to steam, honestly.

    When I used windows and had EGS, I had to log in nearly every time because it was so rare that I launched it. So not even a Heroic issue, yet another Epic issue

    Was going to say this. There was an entire month and a half in mid-2020 where the launcher SAID I was logged in, but any time I tried to collect a free game or play something I had already installed it would stick me into a login loop. Customer Service was mystified. I was on windows 10, but the crash logs said I was on an unsupported OS. I uninstalled and reinstalled and that didn't help. Ended up wiping the drive it was installed on and that fixed it?
    Well...."fixed". Every time I would shutdown or restart my pc I'd have to login again.

    Compared to that bs, having to login on heroic once in a while is positively smooth sailing. Seems to be mostly when heroic updates.
