No Games Found
For quite a while Heroic does not find any of my games. I did have them, shown up, but them all disappeared after an update.
I am Using the Flatpak (Version 2.7.1). I did a setback. But that did change anything.

Well, I have it for weeks, if not months.

1024
Alright, that's normal then
To give you some context as to what's happening here: Your library is, unsurprisingly, stored in a list of files (
~/.var/app/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/config/legendary/metadata/). Heroic goes through those files, reads them one-by-one, and that's how you get your library. On your system, Heroic is unable to open any of those files, since your OS reports that it already opened too many files. This error, however, should be impossible, as your system is configured to allow applications to open up to 1024 files at a time (and we're nowhere near that limit)
So TLDR: Not sure what's happening here
