  • steam-cli

    Command-line interface to install and execute Steam games

  • I think it is a thing, but you still need to have Steam running.. This is an example but there is also a ncurses menu out there somewhere.

  • lutris

    Lutris desktop client

  • You can also use another program to launch your games, Lutris is my pick. Lutris is a game manager and launcher for Linux with support for Steam, Wine, GOG, Humble Bundle and community script on lutris.net . It launches games through Steam with just a popup, no library, no store.

  • And you are right to disable GPU acceleration in web view, as that has a terrible video memory leak. Almost 2 years and still not fixed.
