Is there a modern name fronted for Linux?

Even after all these years I still get back to my territory outdated version of mame32++ wine.

It's not a perfect setup but the alternatives, that I am aware of, suck even more.

It comes with a mostly text but technically graphical ROM selector. It's not the most pretty, but it is quite functional. Given the size of the project it is almost inevitable that the interface feels like a database front end.

It's only been an year since I've tried it. There have been massive improvements over the years but I still prefer dealing with the above setup.

They do have autofire, saves, art, snapshots, etc. but I got tired of having to configure my joypad cfg after every restart. Maybe time to give it another try
