If you're blessed with a higher DPI monitor, Steam's UI fonts may be unbearably tiny. You can add a custom skin from https://github.com/MoriTanosuke/HiDPI-Steam-Skin for your user to alleviate this. The skins directory is ~/.local/share/Steam/skins/. | If you're blessed with a higher DPI monitor, Steam's UI fonts may be unbearably tiny.

<code>steam-run</code> is a helper that can be used to run external programs in the steam FHS environment. This means that some third-party software, mostly games, can be run easily on NixOS using <code>steam-run</code>. Before trying other solutions, try starting your game this way, where <code>start-game.sh</code> is the script used to start the game on Linux. | |||
