    The problem was using some esoteric loonix distro that’s not Ubuntu or mint. Smh

      The fact there are so many distros and only a handful are “the good ones” (which changes with every user you ask) is one of the major reasons Linux is is not user friendly at all.

        Making users make a very major decision before they even install an OS is definitely not a good way to retain users, especially when there’s someone saying they’re wrong no matter what they pick

      It’s a problem with APT not updating it’s packages/programs/version list before installing a software.

      He should do “sudo apt update”, before “sudo apt install steam”, but of course it’s apt problem for not doing it automatically. Someone who uses Linux for longer would install it from Flatpak app store or something, but it’s clearly not simple “wrong distro, bro”.
