If you haven't found a solution as of yet, passing the -vgui flag to steam on launch fixed it for me. This launches Steam in the old UI, which seems to be a workaround for the time being.

I'm not entirely sure what the core issue is, the consensus from what I've read so far seems to point to a Nvidia driver issue introduced in a recent update.

I installed Fedora and steam works but Bottles and Lutris don't.
