Issue
Online Accounts and Steam apps are very laggy/stuttering. Tried both the regular and the snapd version of Steam, didn't help.

Steps to reproduce
Just launch either app. When trying to input any text or click on any buttons, the GUI will react several seconds later.

Expected behaviour
I should see input text right away, instead of five seconds after typing it.

I've noticed this as well the past few weeks. multilib/steam 1.0.0.74-1 on Archlinux kernel 5.18.12 and Cinnamon 5.4.7, the main Steam window has moments where interacting with it becomes very slow to respond.

it's not always but on a few occasions I've noticed visiting the Steam "Library" tab and clicking on various software in the list may not respond for a few seconds.
