    My web browser gets the full 1900Mbps.

    And why you didn’t mention such important detail in the beginning? “Steam on windows downloads faster than steam on linux” is much different from “browser on linux downloads faster than steam on linux”.

      I did.

      I said Steam downloads slowly. Why would I make the distinction of Steam if I meant the entirety of the Linux OS?

      Also I changed to Manjaro and Steam still refuses to download quickly. So much for “just working”.

        You did not.

        Why does Steam only download at 100Mbps max, when Windows downloads at 1500Mbps?

        You clearly said Windows, not Firefox

          Context matters. You’re being disingenuous.

          I am literally using Linux right now. Busy spending all my hours trying to fix it and make it work.

          And I even attached a screenshot of the Linux desktop.

          It’s clear that I’m saying that I’m spending hours fixing Linux to make Steam (on Linux) download at full speed, while (Steam on) Windows downloads at full speed.
