Don't get me started on the client being 32-bit in this day and age
I ran Steam on Wayland just fine for several years.
I meant without XWayland. Ofc you can run basically any x app via XWayland.
In a way, Steam being 32bit ensures the kernel and most distros keep supporting 32bit.
Sadly, that's true. We still have to support 32-bit because of steam. It'd be cool if we could FINALLY move on from ancient x32. Oh, and also X11.
true, unless they had a stance against proprietary software. (e.g, Fedora Linux,Trisquel)
but afaik Fedora tried to remove 32 bit support but it received backlash
Why does it need to be 64-bit? Does it really need to address more RAM to launch games?
maybe in the future Steam Client will become x64-bit/Wayland if CEF compiled only on X64-BIT and Wayland,
Cause a Steam Client update broke the Windows 8.1 and below thingy not Valve Manually blocking it lol.
I'll be amazed if the file browse dialogs actually work.
Why's that? Seems like a fairly simple task to me
It's an issue because every desktop shell has a different implementation and Steam needs to support various versions of kde/gnome/xfce and whatnot. I found that I had to install certain packages and do unholy things to make dialog appear on some systems.
Yes, but it's broken for some time now.
That would be a miracle
The environment variable STEAM_FORCE_DESKTOPUI_SCALING stopped working but there is now a UI scale slider in the Steam settings instead. My only complaint is that it is hidden in the accessibility options.
Damn no mention of the starting in store page bug.
My and my friends steam just show a black store page on first open. We had to click to library and back for it to render.
I started making my library the start up default and then just clicking over to the store to save myself a click.
Flatpak version on Bazzite. Didn’t experience it on other distros.
I'm using the .deb (for VR and DRM) I can only access the steam library and interact with it, if I try to interact with the desktop the window closes. ended up installing wlxoverlay to access my desktops. also steam only gives me 1 of my 2 monitors. hope this fixes some of these issues
Bazzite
Isn't there already Steam preinstalled?
Correct. It comes with the Flatpak version pre installed.
Still no Wayland support...
