I’m moving my posts from Reddit to Lemmy before delete them.

It should’ve been apt-get but welp.
For real though, what’s the best way to install steam? I assume it’s the *.deb directly from the site.
flatpak install steam
Flatpak can’t launch non-steam games via Steam :(
Yeah it can*
Is there a way to do it without breaking the sandbox? I’ve been looking for a few days for a way to do this without any luck.
What do you mean by breaking the sandbox. You add permissions to let it see other drives if that’s what you mean. Other then that, I just let it see my home and add non steam games. They come up like you would with Windows.

I can’t figure out a way to do it without using flatpak-spawn maybe I should create a thread on Lemmy to see if anyone else knows a way.
You just give it permission to see whatever directory you’re launching the exe from

LTT is a fucking moron
It was a bug in the OS
While true, he still did see the prompt saying it would uninstall a bunch of required libraries and powered through.
On any sane system that type of warning is normal to ignore, Windows loves to throw them at you
I like to actually have control over my computer, not to be treated like a child. If you give me a detailed warning and make me type out a string I think it is fair that you continue to do as I say.
