Can't install 32bit libraries (programming.dev)

So i'm new to void and have been trying to install steam, the flatpak was giving me some headaches with dbus so i added the non free repos and installed steam, but when i try to install the 32bit libraries like libgcc-32 xbps say they don't exist and everything to fix points me to 2 links from the void wiki that have been long dead

[EDIT]

I've managed to install by adding the free multilib repo

sudo xbps-install -Sy void-repo-multilib

I used steam without any flatpak and it worked fine. Does this not work for you?

Thanks for the help, but i managed to make it work, i didn't added the free multilib repo so i couldn't download some of the 32bit libraries that i needed

FTW the official guide is kind of good. Follow it to get steam running on Void Linux.
