You can disable startup programs via the Task Manager.

You can also delay startup of certain applications, if you wish.

There's nothing worse than autostart applications that I don't regularly use. I would never autostart steam.

Nowadays Firefox is the only program I have on autostart, and I'm proud of that ;p

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

Literally just type "Steam" into whichever program manager your distro came with.

The linux hard meme is getting old, guys. Its not 1992.

Not as old as the "You could use Linux" meme

Shut the fuck up every fuckin thread, guys 😂

I've typed furiously steelseries in Linux but still can't install their software so that I can configure the macro buttons on my keyboard.

But that's more a steelseries problem than a Linux problem.

Big brain move, don't have to worry about auto start if all the programs don't work on the operating system

(This is a joke)
