Do we need a standalone Libre/OpenSource Game-Store/Hub ??? (similar to Athenaeum)

where we simply aggregate all the FOSS games in one place along with their mods & links to their assets (Plus methods to fund those libre-gamedevs)

Absolutely not, because the concept itself doesn't make any damn sense. A service that aggregates a bunch of Free Software in one place is called a "repository," not a "store!"

The framing of issues is important, and to cede control of that framing to proprietary software publishers by adopting their terminology would be a mistake.

Wikipedia suggests f-droid is a "free and open-source app store."
