Hello @owlpaste, based on https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9321#issuecomment-1606350825, can you check if #9588 is relevant for you?
@kisak-valve, thanks for linking to the issue, it was exactly it. Removing the package allowed me to start steam (and probably because I run --reset before) it needed me to log in. Though I was unable to login either with QR code, steam guard key or username/password combo, at least it starts!
Thanks, il close this
Update, I can login now, looking at the /r/steam discord, other people were having login issues around the same time so il put it down to that :+1:
