I enjoy experimenting with Linux on my Xiaomi Mi A1, which is built on Arm. Installing Debian via Linux Deploy works, but Steam doesn’t. I’ve looked into it and think the issue is related to being an Arm64 device, not Amd64 or i386. Have you tried alternative methods? I’d appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

the command only creates software for various architectures that can be installed. this doesn't guarantee they'll work, since arm differs from x86.

I checked the available options, but there isn’t a Steam build specifically for Arm64 at the moment.

The Steam package is built for 32-bit architecture.

Many Steam games run on ARM systems, but a few include their mobile versions inside the installation directory. Typically, these are designed for mobile platforms.

There is a method to execute x86 applications on ARM using QEMU, though it involves some complexity. It demands having all the i386 libraries installed and properly setting up QEMU with the correct libraries. You could run basic programs, but I don’t see Steam as a suitable option. The performance would likely be poor.
