I'm trying to install steam (deb or terminal, it has to not be flatpak or snap)

and I tried following the first method on this website: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-steam-on-ubuntu-20-04-focal-fossa-linux

sudo apt install steam

I did do sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 even though that's not part of the guide I'm following (it was for wine) should I revert and disable i386 first and then try installing steam again?

The long list of packages seems off to me.

It looks OK to me. Steam requires i386.

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.
