Linux - Steam Download Speed Fix
Steam Download Speed is so slow on Linux...Here's the fix
Some systems and configurations seem to have issues with HTTP2. Disabling HTTP2 will probably yield faster downloads on those configurations. You can either use the console command @nClientDownloadEnableHTTP2PlatformLinux 0 or set it in steam_dev.cfg
There is another one which makes Steam connect to more servers (up to 10) which can improve download speeds.
@fDownloadRateImprovementToAddAnotherConnection 1.0
You can then use the command download_sources to see various stats.
For native installs of Steam where you have installed Steam through apt, dnf, pacman, etc... the file path will be as follows:
~/.steam/steam/steam_dev.cfg
For Flatpak installs of Steam the file path will be as follows:
~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.steam/steam/steam_dev.cfg
**I have added the steam_dev.cfg file in this repository that you can put in the file path.
