Steam not working right on Arch Linux? It's an issue with FreeType and there's a fix

Quoting: TakuyaI just received a new update of Steam Client just now, I got the black screen. I thought that this meant I was ready to update Freetype2, to my surprise, after the self update when launching Steam Client, appeared as a package update. After update every package, it keeps showing the black screen :(.
I hope someone can help me with this issue, I'd be really grateful.
Thank you for this article and for the work you'd keep doing always :).
Receive a huge, sincere, fresh & virtual hug, as well as my best desires ^^.
You should report it here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues

Quoting: Purple Library GuyGotta admit it takes me a bit of squinting to tell the difference. Look at the girl's skirt and you can kind of tell, but I'm not going "OMG, it was so bad before and it's so grt now!!!"
Yes, something is wrong with these images, looks like they are upscaled with FSR and then downscaled back.

p.s. I switched Steam from beta to stable and the problem's gone. Strange...
edit: but now something is wrong with my Steam's config.

It's hard to believe Selaco is running on GZDoom in the latest 3 minute trailer

Quoting: PlintslîchoI hope the games gets released on itch.io or GOG.com as well.
It will be DRM-free anyway even in Steam because it's very hard to implement DRM with GPL'ed game engine.

Proton 6.14 GE-2 and Wine 6.14 GE-2 are out, easily update Proton GE with ProtonUp

Quoting: jrtWhat do I need ProtonUP for? There is an AUR package that updates proton-ge with normal system updates and you could probably do the same with a deb/rpm repository. I don't like a separate tool to update individual components. I'm a strong believer in the benefits of package managers.
Arch installs ProtonGE to /usr while ProtonUP installs it to ~/.steam
