configs-scripts VS steam-for-linux

You can't combine them, and if you try, you're almost certainly going to have a bad time. But on a BTRFS file system, you can deduplicate all the data between them. I run that script on my own setup, and the space savings from so doing are significant.

Prefix deduplication has massive space savings potential. I made a script that you can run periodically that handles running duperemove on installed Proton versions and the compatdata folder for BTRFS filesystems: vacuum-steamplay

I also dislike the spacious padding that GTK tends to use. I have tweaks that I use for GTK3 gtk.css that make the UI more compact. We can almost certainly still do that here, we just need to sit down with the Adwaita demo and the GTK inspector and just start poking and tweaking.

The only way to change the UI density is with xdg-config/gtk-{3,4}.0/gtk.css. You can use @import to split the changes across multiple files. Here is what I use to slim down GTK3. You also need this tweak for the headerbar height to not be decided by an invisible "sizing box".

Anyone else noticing this? I don't believe I'm going insane. For a while now my download speeds, regardless of chosen server, are always slower in the Linux client compared to in Windows. Is the only appropriate place to post about this here -> https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Steam-for-Linux ? Would be great to know that I'm not the only one being affected.

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues Its seems to be a problem happening only to Nvidia GPUs. Not only Mint but many other distros A temporary solution is to open Steam from the Terminal using "steam -vgui"

I just spent a few hours working on that problem that Steam takes very long to appear. I did not have xdg-desktop-portal-gnome installed, and Steam is the only application that has that problem, so it's not the one from the update forum post. What my (and probably your) problem is, is this one: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9780. Some bug where CEF gets stuck in a loop. When I executed steam --reset an error about steamwebhelper and glibc appeared like 50 times, each taking a few seconds.

Hey I had the same issue - are you running this on Linux? On my arch machine I had this problem and was able to resolve it via the advice in this thread: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9640
