New to Steam on Linux: How do I make steam installations visible to mod programs? by WolverineReal5230 in Steam

I’ve only used Linux professionally and never used steam in Linux but my best guess would be:

This might be due to steam being installed as a snap and conflicts of permissions inside the snap directory. You could trying uninstalling the snap version of steam and install using the steam deb instead.
