Same happened to me just now.
Minimized (on x) client would randomly pop back up after 1..2 min.
Unable to reproduce after restart to gather logs from cli.
Facing a similar issue on 64 bit CachyOS, except my steam would reopen the window every 15 seconds or so
I actually have the same issue.
it happens to me if in the store or in Libraray Home.
I am not using the beta client.

I have steam installed using the steam package from Manjarro multilib repository. So no Flatpack or specail things.
I also see the message which was mentioned in a different issue in my logs. But not sure if it is related.
ERROR: unsafe call to unsetenv count:1 var:'DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID'
Any news on this? I have this especially when closing a game, starting one, or when playing one. When left on its own, sometimes. No errors in console.
Does this happen on Steam Deck too?
Nothing extracted yet.
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I'm downloading RDD2 (I don't know if that has anything to do with it) I have found that steam restarts, the Steam status icon (in my case top right) stays there (does not disappear), however the application closes and reopens every so often (two minutes or something).
Sometimes stay closed.
