I'm thinking about making a dedicated gaming PC which is to be shared in our household. ChimeraOS/HoloISO seems the ideal solution to that... Except that games thay it means that all save files of games that don't use Steam Cloud OR write save files on Valve's recommended directory are shared between users.

Is there any tool that can recognize the current active Steam User and swap save files on the background? The other solution is to forego using HoloISO/ChimeraOS/SteamOS and install a traditional distro and make different users have different system accounts, but that sounds a nightmare to deal with due to Steam Family Sharing requiring that all steam users are logged into each system users, so the library is shared across all of them. Not to mention config files are going to be separated as well...

    Uninstall and reinstall the game between users...

    More seriously, I think bazzite is keeping a traditional login screen instead of using the steam one, so you could have actual segregated user accounts
