The August 16 Steam Client update is a major one, and among the new features and enhancements implemented, we can mention the ability of handling clickable URLs in the chat windows for the desktop Steam Client running on GNU/Linux distros, and better compatibility with the soon-to-be-released macOS 10.12 Sierra operating system. Other noteworthy changes include the addition of a button for clearing the local download cache, which should improve the overall download experience, improved support for Xbox One controllers, support for displaying if a certain game was excluded from Family Sharing, and support for spectating VR games when using Steam Link.
