@26:07 he says as a business he's considering Linux on his computers because of Windows privacy violations. It's great to hear someone with such a wide audience talking about using Linux.

Long story short, there was a bug with apt that Pop!_OS didn't patch before the release. They did so after the latest version at the time was released. Had he updated his system before trying to install Steam, it'd never happened, that's the worst part.

Should have updated the install materials or just automatically force an update upon install. Competency should never be expected from the end user.
