Hi I've been recently using the steam flatpak instead of the rpm package from the rpm fusion repos here on fedora 38. Everything has been going swell except one thing. I have two drives with steam libraries on them other than the default one steam creates. I can add these through the storage manager but when I restart my computer steam often but not always forgets them. Meaning most of the time when I boot my computer I have to go into the storage manager in steam and re-select the library folders and then it remembers my installed games. I've already had an issue open on the github for the steam flatpak but alas nothing yet https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam/issues/1075. Just curious if anyone else is experiencing this issue and if anyone knows how I could remedy this so the drives are there on boot. I did get two other people with the issue on github but no solutions.

Try the Flatpak one.

I recently updated from Fedora Silverblue 36 to 38, and now Japanese fonts are no longer working properly in multiple apps. Before, they would display correctly, but now I get rectangles instead of the proper characters. Examples of affected apps are Steam and Lifeograph (both installed via Flatpak).

Here's the actual thread in case you're interested.

I just noticed that even tho I installed Proton GE from Flathub using flatpak install com.valvesoftware.Steam.CompatibilityTool.Proton-GE -y and the repo seems to be updated to the latest version of Proton GE, the version on my system that steam lets me choose is version 7-36.

According to Github issue/PR #126 new builds are failing because of a bug in flatpak-external-data-checker or some incompatibility between the two projects at least.

Are you using the Proton-GE flatpak? I reported this bug here a few days ago: https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam.CompatibilityTool.Proton-GE/issues/79 Unfortunately the build with the fix failed so no update was published. I ended up uninstalling that flatpak and moved to ProtonUp-Qt to manage my Proton versions

You can also get Proton-GE as Flatpak. I'm using the beta branch & enabled flathub-beta repo for that reason: https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam.CompatibilityTool.Proton-GE/tree/beta

For Steam, from my testing, the Flatpak version (a way to get the same version of apps on any distro) should work just fine now (Protontricks and Proton-GE are also available on Flatpak). But you should really only install Flatpak version only if you have trouble with normal Steam.

Proton 5.13 introduced sandboxing using Valve's pressure-vessel that wouldn't stack with Flatpak. Users had to install one of the Proton community builds from Flathub (Proton, Proton-Experimental, Proton-GE) or stick with older upstream releases.
