I am using Arch linux on a nvidia machine with the latest nvidia package, and the default linux kernel. I have noticed steam takes forever to launch and seems to loop, this happens on both xorg and wayland

You are right, this fixes slow startup times for Steam, Firefox, Thunderbird and various others.
@setInner234 @deong yes, uninstall gtk-desktop-portal-gnome if you aren’t using the gnome desktop, same for the kde variant if you aren’t using kde. The gtk portal is most generic, it’s supposed to be for any setup which doesn’t have its own portals like many, or those who only have the minimum required, those which have something to do with compositor support, for example wlroots based setups. If your desktop has a portal backend, don’t use the gtk one as you may be missing in functionality, arch devs should make more specific portal backend packages conflict with the generic gtk one, but o well.
