Does it also affect SteamCMD?
Probably not. The main culprit is probably the bundled, Chromium-based web renderer (CEF), not Steam itself.
Just use Windows 10 or Linux
lol win 7 probably still can run more games than Linux
Linux can slightly run more tho,since windows 7 is eol.
My Steam Deck runs most games just fine.
Plenty of alternative stores that don't require a launcher, so still possible to sideload games and therefore, 7 and 8 are not quite dead yet. (side note, but Vista is still also a decent system for gaming)
