can someone plz teach me step by step what should i do to just get steam up and running ?

Steam needs to install these additional packages:
libc6:arm64 libc6:i386 libegl1:arm64 libgbm1:arm64 libgl1-mesa-dri:arm64 libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 libgl1:arm64 libgl1:i386 steam-libs-amd64:amd64 steam-libs-i386:i386

Press return to proceed with the installation: 


Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package libc6:i386 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  libdb1-compat libcrypt1

Package libgl1:i386 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

Package libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'libgl1-mesa-dri:i386' has no installation candidate

You won't get Steam up and running in an ARM computer, it's that simple. Even if you could the amount of games that support such architecture is so tiny it's negligible. The problem isn't much different/"better" in Windows: https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/10/1480982971166154154/?l=russian PS - Rants won't get you help, all the opposite actually.

I’m voting to close this question because it's no more than a rant

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
