Took a while but I finally got it

As many of us have, our Steam libraries have grown so much over the years that we have a huge backlog of games to play. It is hard to keep track of which game liked/disliked.

I see options like hide this game or putting games into collections, I'm interested in how do you keep track of the good and bad games? Games you would like to eventually come back to?

Since some time now the Steam Flatpak cannot start up and I have no idea why this happens.

Web research leads to basically nothing that is related to what I experience so I assume it has something to do with my system. Other Flatpaks start up normally and I can use them.

When resetting everything related to the Steam Flatpak and reinstalling it from Flathub it loads and installs the Flatpak and then installs all necessary stuff

[various update-related stuff]

steam.sh[2]: Steam client's requirements are satisfied

So everything looks good up to this point. The small Steam update windows poppend up several times indicating the running installation/update. The output then continues:

(The last line gets printed twice, yes.)

The first startup process then hangs there for a few seconds and continues with this.

After the command prompt is shown agein, this gets printed:

At the given location there is no dump file.

Do you guys have any Idea why this happens and how I can fix it?
