It does crash regularly, or it stops working and you need to restart it, and it always did this kind of thing. The obnoxious "I need to update before you're allowed to play" is hardly a selling feature. The videos and the adds are both obnoxious and intensive on resources.
Galaxy has its ups and downs, but overall I feel its lighter and much more responsive. The interface is much less cluttered, much more logical and clear. And it's not a fucking drm.
I thank vavle for what did for Linux gaming. Proton is brilliant and incredibly useful and valuable. But I also despise them for steam being litteraly a DRM. So I will forgive cdpr if they need time to develop galaxy on Linux and I'll use lutris and heroic game launcher in the meantime.
It is trivial to disable all the video content (and some more) on steam if you happen to be on low-end hardware that needs that (or just if you don’t like it, really)
I'm not on low end hardware.
I explicitly addresed that possibilty in my comment.
Then you use it wrong. No idea how that's possible but I run Steam on Windows, macOS, and Linux and except very early in the life cycle of the Steam Deck, I can't remember Steam ever crashing on me in the last 10 or so years.
"you use it wrong"... Of course... It cannot possibly be the fault of a shitty software and it must be me...
If you were correct, there'd be widespread reports of crashes. While no software is always free of bugs, if a piece of software is crashing for you all the time and hardy for everybody else, it's the logical conclusion that the underlying problem is on your side, probably by installing unstable drivers.
Hahaha like people will fill a bug report everytime a software crash... I wonder whether you're delusional or blinded by your faith into this piece if shit of a software.
