Devil's advocate, I use Steam on Fedora and have had 0 issues. Very rarely freezes or crashes. It's probably the most stable application I use daily.

- 2OEH8eoCRo0 3y agoI use Steam on Fedora as well and I notice a lot of jank with the Steam client (Nvidia 1080ti). Dropdown menus popping through windows, sound may or may not work for videos, freezing, etc. It's usable but it's not very pleasant.
- Entinel 3y agoJust for GPU comparison I'm on an AMD RX card so it could be an Nvidia issue which is known to be jank on Linux.
- sosodev 3y agoIt seems to work perfectly for some people. I’ve regularly had issues with the client not rendering at all, freezing, and crashing on Pop_OS 22.04 LTS with an nvidia GTX 1660ti.
- WaffleIronMaker 3y agoI also use Steam on Fedora, and I've not had any issues with Stardew Valley, Factorio, Celeste, N++, Undertale, and others. I remember having a brief issue with Portal, but I was able to resolve it. Overall, I've had a good experience.
- _piif 3y agoThe client seems to be very suseptible to I/O stalls and even randomly just locks up for a few seconds by itself every once in a while on my end for some reason. That in itself would be fine if it wouldn't also directly affect games launched through Steam.
