    That’s kind of nice. Might let me switch up the scaling on Wayland since steam currently doesn’t scale by itself anyways.

      Steam actually has a startup argument you can use for scaling, I’ve been using if for ages.

      -forcedesktopscaling=1.5

      I use this, gives 150% scale

    Nice. Maybe they’ll fix the constant shader cache recompiling next (which has been known for a loooong time now). Or maybe the double/tripple/quadruple downloads when switching your Proton version

    As much as I like most of Valves actions, steam is just a steaming pile of garbage
