The culmination of several months of work by dozens of people, Flatpak 1.14.0 is now out!
There used to be a project called ginstall.sh that kept like, a manually maintained database of various projects with static binaries and how to install them. It still exists, but maintenance stopped because its model was also not sustainable. Its use case is better covered by tools like asdf, stew, and if you want to get even simpler, eget.

I made a tool to download and run popular CLI tools like youtube-dl, jq, and ripgrep without installing them
This is a recipe for a disaster. Just use Stew.

- Steam Download Speed Slow on Linux Compared to Windows 10/11

Very slow download speeds in Linux but normal in Windows..
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.

steam can't load
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"

Stable update today - Please read the forum post
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.
