Linux Connection to Server keeps dropping out

Version

2.2(b3)

Platform

Linux

The attached video demonstratres 15 dropouts within 1h

Before anyone says anything, I'm going to rule out a few things right off the gate:

1. Internet connection and wifi connection are healthy and stable. Other online services such as YouTube, Spotify and Discord are functioning as they should without any indication of a network dropout;
2. The same phenomenon happens when I'm connected on a different wifi at a different address on a different ISP;
3. No other online game is experiencing Network difficulties, only 7 Days to Die;
4. No other player on the server is experiencing dropouts, only me and I'm the only one running the game on Steamdeck.

Respectively, the above factors are ruling out the following potential issues:

• Internet connection (because everything else works fine and the problem persists on a different network)
• wifi connection (because everything else works fine and the problem persists on a different network)
• ISP (problem persists on a different ISP)
• SteamOS (all other online games work fine on my platform)
• Steamdeck (all other games work fine on my platform)
• the game server (other players don't drop out)

In the light of all these observations, the most likely culprit would be the game client.

Please advise.

I am available for further troubleshooting steps. If this does not get resolved within 30 days I'm going to notify Steam so tney can remove the Steam Deck Compatibility icon on their store.

Thank you.
