I really hope they come with a wayland native version in the near future.
I was hoping there would be something about resource usage. Curse you, steamwebhelper
Oh yeah. If you leave a steam page open, it’ll create a very slow memory leak. Left store page open for about a week, came back to 6gb steamwebhelper xd
Also not a fan of downloads eating a core.
All I really want is a context menu to open the game’s Wine prefix directory.
yes please. It’s super annoying in general but on deck it gets old so fast that it happens in the past.
i hope it finally fixes the bug that makes steam have alzheimers when it comes to windows size and position.
because I’m sick to fucking death of having to constantly resize and reposition the windows every time i switch between small/large and when launching.
Its so bad that I gave up and just started browsing steam store via browser.
I hate that it steals the focus like 5 times when launching. I’ll try to click off to do something while it’s starting, but it steals input focus. I get doing it once when the app finishes loading, but I really don’t need to stare at the startup progress bar.
Steam, as a program, has fundamentally gotten worse with every update ever since they switched to electron/chromium
remember for a while they tried to take small mode away from us.
cause they are going down the same route that everything goes. Its gotten popular, so now they are trying to turn it into a social media platform.
I dont want a social media playform. theres already enough of those. I just want a small, slick, low resource, easy to use, quick to load program to buy my games and launch them.
Small mode? I had completely forgotten that it existed. I didn’t know anyone used that.
Same, never heard of it, but now I want it.
I agree with the poster, I don’t want any of that social nonsense, I just want to play games. As long as they keep developing Proton, I can forgive quite a lot.
Steam has always been a social gaming platform…in fact it wasn’t even always a storefront.
I’ve had steam since HL2 launched.
No it hasnt.
and no, it wasnt a storefront then either, because it was DRM/game decrypter and multiplayer server finder. They had no other games for sale at the time.
multiplayer server finder
and what imaginarily clever point do you think you are making with that.
Please fix the issue where you change my default graphic card settings in the desktop file. It’s super annoying to have to launch from the cli after an update.
OMG thats what that is… I thought I was crazy
Does copying the desktop file to the applications directory in ~/.local help?
I don’t know I haven’t tried that as I can go in and change the file, and set PrefersNonDefaultGPU=false and it works after that.
I would love to see valve eventually have a whole team dedicated to their own OS and make it a super viable and stable distro.
I really would like steamwebhelper to stop crashing randomly. It breaks game recording, and it doesn’t come back until you restart steam.
So many good clips lost :(
Still waiting for a fix to make Steam library sharing usable on a multi user system without quietly failing with nothing showing
Yes please, I’ve just been hit by this yesterday. Though there are workarounds… But they aren’t pretty.
Mine is to just create a separate user to use steam… Kinda like Steam Deck, but I hate relogging every time I want to play a game
How bout anti-cheat, so we can play multiplayer games? Please.
We have that. Depends wholly on the developer to implement it right.
Depends on Publisher allowing Linux Support.
Just drop the anit-cheat requirement and let is handle cheating directly, with vote-to-kick, like we did back in the day.
Removed by mod
Checked and no they haven’t lol.
I don’t think this used to be an issue because I used to use desktop icon launchers in the past, which makes it weird that it somehow changed. I think maybe after the big new UI update?
This has been an issue like 2 years maybe or 1. I checked too :(
