    maybe it once was. anyway, steam is still not trivial to download, linus would have a hard time

      If you can download a .exe installer, you can download a .rpm file and use the graphical .rpm installer to install steam.

      Just search “install steam Fedora” and the first result is https://itsfoss.com/install-steam-fedora/

      In that guide it has the correct instructions to enable the RPMFusion repos, then install steam. It even provides the necessary terminal commands to copy + paste:

      sudo dnf install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm

      sudo dnf install steam

      Never mind that Linus could tweet “how do I install steam on Fedora?” or ask his live stream, he’d be flooded with the correct answer in like 3 seconds.

      Edit: Flatpack is enabled by default on Fedora, too. He could just go to https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.valvesoftware.Steam to download and install Steam directly from the web. That’s pretty much the same process as downloading an installer on Windows.

        if he used gnome he could literally just check a box on gnome software repos option and install it through RPM fusion with it

        at least with 35 beta it’s there, right next to the NVIDIA option
