I was able to install steam and get to the sign in page through this guide but whenever I try to sign in it shows my avatar and says loading account info and then never boots into the actual steam client itself.

I just saw someone enter insert mode to backspace comments instead of just pressing x to delete the character under the cursor

Hey, so im learning to install Steam on aarch86 Asahi linux.
What I've done based on your video is opened pacman.conf - you have multilib commented, I didn't so I've created the text to match yours.

But it doesnt work. It fails. multilib.db failed to download. "The requested URL returned eror 404".

How can I install steam on Asahi linux which is installed on M2pro mac?

but wen i do sudo pacman -S steam this appear:

sudo pacman -S steam
error: failed to init transaction (unable to lock database)
error: could not lock database: File exists
if you're sure a package manager is not already
running, you can remove /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
