You can game just fine on Debian, skill issue? And Debian will be around and doing great long after your vanity distro has disappeared.

Are you from the anti Linux front for people without any chill? Because now I want to try Windows again.

Chill dude. Don't make a Distro your center of life.

I installed the flatpak version and it worked without any tinkering, even Windows games. I've tried the "official" install method (a few years ago now) and ran into problems. I go for flatpak nowadays for simplicity. Lets me have a rock-solid OS and up-to-date apps.

First edit /etc/apt/sources.list to add contrib, if it's not already there.

Then:

dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt update
apt install steam:i386
