It’s still 32bit. i’ve heard it guessed that Valve does this on purpose because so many games are still 32bit and Wine/Proton/etc aren’t fully compatible yet. What does it matter if Steam works and most of the Steam library does not.
If this happens, give Fedora itself a try. The only issue I’ve had with it is that my video card drivers didnt work right out of the gate and took a little bit of playing to get perfect.
God fucking damnit, I finally find a Linux OS that gels with me and I find this shit…
Note that this is just a proposal that the Fedora community wants feedback on.
Even if it does go ahead, this is minimum 1 year away from happening.
Tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if this was meant as a “hurry up and move away from Steam still being a 32-bit app, Valve!” bit of brinkmanship.
I thought the Steam Linux client was already native 64-bit?
If not, maybe this is the kind of push needed to get them to actually go full 64-bit?

Seems like a good reason for the Wine / Proton WoW64 subsystem to improve.

Been with fedora for years, but fedora is the problem, so that would be pretty pointless.
Fedora is literally the source of this problem. Bazzite is based on Fedora.
