Task management non-existent @steam
There's nothing worse than autostart applications that I don't regularly use. I would never autostart steam.

Is there really any application that people have on autostart other than a backup program or VPN?
Even as a minimal Sway user, I have, apart from the usual daemons like clipboard managers, spotify-tui, KeePassXC, Discord (just canary.discord.com in its own FF instance) and Firefox in my sway config. As they all have dedicated workspaces that aren't on the main screen, it doesn't annoy at all and with 16 GB of RAK I don't notice the extra 2 GB usage. I use them all anyway, so why not autostart them?
You could use Linux
Good idea, then the programs won’t pop up on start up because I can’t figure out how to install them in the first place
sudo apt install steam
No need to thank me
