Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): Feb 20
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Artix Linux
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes (although libx11 and lib32-libx11 are kept downgraded to 1.8.2-2)

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When a new window opens, there is a chance that it will crash Chromium for it and all other Steam windows, leaving stray windows that don't close even when Steam closes.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. In Steam Chat, open context menu on a friend
  2. Go to Manage > Categorize
  3. There's a random chance Chromium crashes

Important note: I am using Qtile tiling window manager, it is possible that its automatic resizing may influence the issue; and considering the automatic resizing, I observed that many other windows that used to have a min/fixed size no longer impose the restriction
