No Man's Sky Multiplayer works on Steam Deck, but not Arch Linux (feddit.org)

Regardless of which compatibility layer (Proton 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, experimental) I use and if I use the native libraries or Steam's, the discovery services work, but I can't see other players in the Anomaly.

Weirdly enough, on Steam Deck it works without any issues, but obviously I want to play this on my beefy gaming PC 😥

How can I fix this?

Although I wouldn't be surprised if it was caused by NMS's own network backend. When the Corvette update was launched, multiplayer was fine on my work computer, but did not work on my home PC. It's a constant dumpster fire.

The only thing I didn't try from these was disabling IPv4. Didn't work :(

EDIT: and I tried with another Steam account. Didn't work either.

Jesus Christ, so much this. I had so many issues with Multiplayer. After so many years they ought to have fixed this.
