It might be that more Mac users are moving away from Steam as their gaming client - from my experience, it's very glitchy, and hasn't been properly updated in years

And isn't there extremely limited support for M1 Mac on Steam? As Mac users upgrade their machines, they can't continue to use Steam like they used to.

My anecdotal experience is that Apple silicon support is not usually a major problem. Plenty of stuff seems to be fine through Rosetta. The worse case is 32 bit only games which are unsupported in modern macos versions regardless of CPU arch.

The client on macos was buggy as hell, but after the UI refresh update a month or two back it's fine again now

Oh cool, I haven't used it in a while. Good to know!
