The idea

The launcher knows the GPU maker (it shows DLSS or FSR 4). The picker puts first the pull requests labelled for it (gpu/amd, gpu/nvidia, gpu/intel, gpu/igpu), and on a Steam Deck those labelled platform/steam-deck, then the rest in their order (fewest people looked, then oldest).

Why: a pull request for one maker's GPUs needs exactly the testers who have one, and they are the ones least likely to find it among the rest.

Anything else

A follow-up of #337 (testing pull requests from the launcher): CI in #353, the launcher's picker in LongshotLauncher pull request 59.

Idea: install a pull request's build from the Longshot Launcher, to help test it #337

Opened by mistake: its idea is now a follow-up in the list on #337. Closing; a maintainer may delete it.
