From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

you'd need to set the environment variables, that exec command is trying to run a program named GDK_SCALE, instead it should be like Exec=/usr/bin/env GDK_SCALE...
the two steam options are to choose between using the systems provided libraries and the ones that ship with steam, I recommend using the steam runtime rather than native
Changed
Exec=/usr/bin/steam-runtime %UtoExec=usr/bin/env GDK_SCALE=2and still nothing changedyou need the whole line to be like
Exec=/usr/bin/env GDK_SCALE=2 /usr/bin/steam %UI was just being lazy as I was on mobile at the time
/usr/bin/steam should be a link to /usr/bin/steam-runtime aswell
