There is currently a bundle sale for GoG games on Humble Bundle.
Beware though that the games will be directly activated to your account and if you have already a copy you will not get a second one.

as of this moment 3814 sold and growing....

Shame I own all the games here already.

Yeah, the account linking thing caught me off guard, I wonder what happens if you buy it as a gift.

A good question, but you are asked to link accounts only when redeeming the games, not when buying them.
So at least in theory, you should be able to gift this bundle, if it's allowed by Humble.

Yesterday I tried to buy it as a gift (to receive a gift link) and I couldn't. It told me that my order was canceled because one or more items in my cart was not giftable at that time.

I really dislike (and distrust) this "account linking". Is there a way to unlink stuff later? Do I have to change my GOG password afterwards? < Does that even help?

Nothing bad happens when you link your accounts.
It's simply a way to prevent people from buying these game bundles in bulk for cheap, only to then sell the individual keys later on.

I am looking and i linked my account when the Seven giveaway. In these years i've changed the password several times and i see linking is still valid. Meanwhile in one click i log out my steam account without any ask. Humble could do with gog as well without asking support.

Okay, I bit the bullet and linked my GOG account...

To answer some of my own questions:
Account linking is based on tokens, not passwords. So changing PWs afterwards doesn't do anything.

Steam has an option to "deauthorize all devices".
GOG has an option to "Logout all authorized sessions".
But I don't know if this is confined to sessions/devices or covers linked accounts as well...?

OTOH, Humblebundle plays dumb:

GOG
Your account is linked to g2222.
To change your account, please contact customer support.
Great... And no option to unlink anything either.

(Sorry for multi-posting)

This bundle is totally buggy.
I own only 1 out of 7 games but I still can't buy the bundle:

Already owned
You already own Happy Holidays with GOG RPGs. You cannot redeem another copy at this time.
Please visit our support page if you have any problems or feedback.
There is a support page on Humble Bundle:
Happy Holidays with GOG RPGs Bundle "Already Owned" Error

The Happy Holidays with GOG RPGs Bundle bundle has additional purchase limitations. Each customer is limited to purchasing this bundle once per account, and gifting is also unavailable. If you are attempting to purchase multiple copies, we apologize that we cannot assist with these requests.

Additionally, if your linked GOG account owns one or more of the games included in this bundle, you may be unable to purchase and receive the above error that you already own the bundle.
If you still wish to purchase this bundle, we recommend taking the following steps:

1. Unlink your GOG account (via Customer Support)
2. Purchase the bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/games/happy-holidays-with-gog-rpgs
3. Relink your GOG account (steps here)
4. Redeem non-duplicate games to your GOG account.
Are you kidding me???
