Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Here's a person having this issue in Manjaro and not in Windows 11: https://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/6717729343888060324/
I link that specifically, because it's newer, showing the issue still exists.
Someone linked a reply to an article from 2015, talking about how to fix the issue: https://ein-eike.de/2015/01/02/fixing-download-speed-problems-under-steam-for-linux/
Another Steam Forum post about this from 2021, where multiple people talk about having this issue: https://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/3083256496964006577/
And of course, if you check Reddit, there are at least 50+ posts ranging in time from 2014 - 2023 about this.
Everyone says to fix it, download DNSMASQ, and disable IPV6. Both of which don't fix it for me, or pretty much anyone else having the issue since 2015.
I don't really know how else to troubleshoot it. I've changed distros mulitple times, downloaded Steam from different repos/directly, and tried all of the "fixes' posted online. My NIC isn't the issue, since I am clearly getting 1887Mbps down in Firefox. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to try them.
Truth is, no one knows why it's happening, or what the actual fix is, and they are pretending to withhold the fix until I apologise for saying Linux doesn't just work like Windows does. None of these hateful Lemmy Linux users that are attacking me actually know how to fix it, but they can't admit Linux can be hella janky.
Look I'm not going lie lol i have no idea what is going on here mate all I'm going say is good luck mate linux can be janky as fuck but when you get shit running well custom rice all your programs running well it's perfecto and well worth the time and effort
Although if you don't have the time or effort to go though all this then just use windows whatever works for you mate check our tiny10 if I were you
