After a recent update, Steam is no longer working on the Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems, and users will finally need to upgrade.

    It still works the same on any distro with SystemD. Side note, I have seen people getting Steam to work on Void and Artix.

        That’s pretty cool. Do you have a potato computer or do you just like a minimal system?

            Nice, I have a T420 myself. I love that machine. I was running Peppermint OS for a while. Until version 11, Hasn’t been the same since 10. The update from 10 to 11 kind of took all the magic out of it for me. Now that machine runs EndeavourOS.
