Good thing she’s your ex now, buddy. Glad you made it out.

There’s even more episodes that are as good as that one IMO. The show doesn’t have many bad episodes. Just a handful – maybe – of less interesting ones.

BoJack Horseman is very oddly cozy for me. It shouldn’t be. There’s a lot of angst in there, but it’s comfort.

Been using flatpak Steam for years without any issues specifically related flatpak. 👍👍 Highly recommend!

I don’t think so, seems like it was just a denial of service type issue. I changed nothing, not even a reboot, and it just works now. 👍😉 Flatpak ftw.

Cool, yeah, no worries. 🫶 I hope someone finds it helpful!

Right but you can’t change the native runtime per game. You can only change the compatibility layer (Proton) globally and per game. The runtime is static obviously, and either used or not used. I’m guessing Proton bypasses the native runtime by having the game interacting with it? Or maybe it is a translation layer? Both? Anyway, doesn’t matter. 🙂 What wasn’t the problem.

But I’d still be interested in how to check which version I have, just to know.

Edit: hold on, does the runtime show up in the same list as Proton versions? That would explain what you all are talking about. And only for native Linux games. That’s why I haven’t seen it before I guess.

I think it might have been a denial of service type thing as explained in other replies. I didn’t reboot or anything and it just worked fine now. All good. 👍 Thanks for all the help though.

Almost every reply is also explaining what the runtime is. 😆 I know what it’s for, guys, thanks! ❤️🙏👍

Oh okay, I guess that’s in the main Steam settings, not per game as the other person suggested.

The runtime is for launching games, not Steam itself. You can check the runtime selection in Compatibility tab of Steam and of each game. If your Steam Flatpak install doesn’t work, the issue is likely somewhere else.

Hold up, are you talking about the compatibility layer, “Proton”? I’m not sure that’s what we’re talking about here. Proton is up to version 9 and 10, not 4.0.

🤷‍♂️ Seemed like a good way to install it. I had used the native package before but I think I tried flatpak because of some issue or another with the native version.

It’s been working great for years now so, no issues until now.

I usually install big corporate software with flatpak if I can help it, to keep them as isolated as possible. Slack, Discord, Steam, etc. Stuff like that. 👍

Seems like I’m not the only one with this issue.

Been happening though. Maybe it’s a coincidence or it’s happening again or something. Interesting theory though.

I’d suggest trying to launch the flatpak from the terminal and seeing if there’s any strange logging.

Already did that but I couldn’t see anything that I could recognize as abnormal. The “Connecting” window shows up, actually. But it just stops loading for a second and then it just says “Reaping pid” in the console and it closes the process.

I know what a runtime is, but I’d like to check which version of it I’m running. 🙂 Wouldn’t be very difficult but I’m this instance I don’t know how.

Funny this shows up when all of a sudden Steam won’t launch anymore on my Arch install. It’s installed via flatpak.

How do I even check which version of the Steam runtime I am running? The flatpak version of Steam is just 1.0.something.other.

😂 I’m on the shitter at work damn you, can’t be laughing out loud!

So many tiny little knots

Oh that’s some good ass lore right there. Love how it builds up this image of the danger of the object but never divulges what could actually happen if interacting with it in the wrong way.

Oh yeah, now I remember! lol, can’t believe I forgot. 😂😆🤣
