3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

The new #Steam client they are going to release soon, is going to be a big problem for many #Linux users, or at least those of us with non-high-end computers.

It is too heavy, slow, and hogging system resources.

You can try it today by enabling the Steam beta in your settings.

I wish there's a way to stay in the old Steam client. T_T

Anyone found a workaround?

My system:
* Intel i3 10th Gen 2.10GHz × 4
* OS: #PopOS 22.04 LTS
* Acer TravelMate P213-52
* RAM: 8 GiB
* Gfx: Mesa Intel UHD Graphics

@[email protected] How is it on your end? Using Windows or Linux? No slowless, delayed clicks, and Steam shortcut keys not working (or super delayed)?

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Currently using Windows and all seems fine so far. :ai_yay:

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Here is a video, you can see how the client itself reacts and feels the same maybe even smoother then before, beside that shortcuts seem to work fine too.
