Valve is seeing an increasing number of bug reports for issues caused by Canonical's repackaging of the Steam client through snap.
The best way to install Steam on Debian and derivative operating systems is to follow the instructions at http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ and use the official .deb
We are not involved with the snap repackaging. It has a lot of issues.
If you don't want the .deb, please at least consider the flatpak version.
Thanks to everyone for the enormous support. Many things went wrong during the development process, but at least I learnt a lot and managed to release a game :)
I have a ton of unclaimed games collecting dust in my Humble Bundle account, either games I already own or have no interest in. So instead, I'm giving them all away here....
Soooo, in other news Solaria has a Steam page now!
I got approved on NYE, so thank you whichever Steam employee was working that day 🥳
Naturally, it's early days for the game so it's early days for the page too. But it's there, it'll be improved and filled in more as the game progresses, and it's very exciting!
22 wishlists already and only 15 or so are from friends and family, I'm calling that a success haha 😎
Steam will soon use the desktop portal file picker.
In practice, it means Steam will use your native desktop method for selecting and saving files, resulting in better user experience and desktop integration.
This is one of many things Flatpak and GNOME pioneered that improves the Linux desktop for everyone.
My close friend just got their Steam page approved for the game they've been putting nights and weekends into for over 8 years!
I think it's a truly special game, with great puzzles and an absurd amount of hidden content to discover. It has a cute artstyle and a banger original soundtrack.
Wishlist today to appease the steam algorithm and tell your friends!!
PSA - If your Steam Deck or Steam on Linux has started failing to download or launch Proton games, you may have caught a bad config from Valve's servers.
We believe the problem is fixed now, but you need to delete a cache file locally (~/.steam/steam/userdata/<steamid>/config/compat.vdf where <steamid> is your id).
People of a certain age may recall the excellent demo that came out in 1999 for this game. I never got the full game at the time but now that I'm older with disposable income, I think I will finally give this a go. I've got some Pigs to mount!!...
Hi all, I've just migrated from @irfan to this account on sakurajima.social. I'll also be attempting to migrate my main account @irfan to this one in the coming days, but I'm expecting nothing on that front since it's failed so far.
I've moved to multiple servers throughout my time on the #Fediverse in pursuit for a "permanent" instance to be on, and I've never had the chance to write an #intro post lol so this will be my first.
I'm a 26 year old (in Nov 2024) (gfdi) programmer obsessed with languages such as #Python and #Shell, frameworks like #Django, and #CloudNative shenanigans like #Docker, #Kubernetes, and #Helm. I'm also obsessed with #FOSS and #Linux, and promoting them to be more viable each day for the masses so everyone could have not just free but secure access to daily computing.
I'll be using this account to mostly document my passions through mini reviews or rants. I have another picture-based account over on #Pixelfed, @irfan. All images I have posted and will be posting will include descriptive/alt text, including my pfp and banner. I also have some bots for posting local (to me, #Malaysia) #news and other relevant data cos the #Mastodon API is just so fun to play with.
Hey, I use the Adobe Suite for daily use to build and develop posts and videos for multiple people and can't have my workflow slow down by learning a new application, I've looked into Linux a few times and want to really move over in the future but due to it not having support for Adobe, I'm not sure what to do....
After 4 loooong years, #Moonring is finally coming to #Steam for the grand price of... FREE. No tricks, no DLC, just a free game I hope to make even better over time.

I want to move to Linux but I need to be able to access my apps that are not supported
