It does. I installed Steam through the software manager just fine.

Cool, that makes sense. Linux Mint has a reputation for user friendliness, it's got to have one. The author of this article must have missed it.

If they're like many of us, they probably just have apt/yum/pacman-brain and didn't really think about what's friendly to most people.
