How the hell do you install Steam on Ubuntu? I thought I was a Linux certified PRO for running Arch Linux but did a test run of Ubunu the other day and it made me feel rather stupid. Couldn’t install via apt, couldn’t install Steam deb. Is snap the only way?

Anyways, currently on Fedora KDE spin.

    You’re running Ubuntu commands on Fedora, but I suspect you know that.

    if deb package fails for some reason just use the ubuntu software store to download steam?

    maybe other distros require pacman or dnf/rpm if no software store but i dont think ubuntu is that advanc-ish targeting mostly people who are starting the trip with linux (as for the main release)

    If you’re currently on fedora maybe that’s why you can’t install via apt
