I'm trying to run steam after installing it from pacman and enabling the multilib repository. Whenever I try to run steam I'm given the error in the title with the console output below.

I'm not sure what's causing the http error 0. Some have suggested you need certain things in your /etc/hosts and I believe I've filled out mine correctly.
~ > cat /etc/hosts
# Static table lookup for hostnames.
# See hosts(5) for details.
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost
127.0.1.1 ArchPC.localdomain ArchPC
I've also tried the recommended solution in the arch wiki by installing nss-mdns and lib32-nss individually, restarting and trying again but neither worked. I'm running out of ideas so I'm hoping you guys can help. Thanks in advance.

What does
dig media.steampowered.com
return?

It gives an error. I checked and I can get to store.steampowered.com through firefox though.

AFAIK firefox uses its own DNS servers by default nowadays.
How is your network configured? What does /etc/resolv.conf contain?

I believe this means your machine can't reach any nameserver, not that the DNS itself doesn't resolve. Try 'dig xxx.archlinux.com` (with the three x's) and you probably get the same answer, even though we know there's no resolution to that name.

You're right. What can be done about this?

I missed the earlier message about /etc/resolv.conf. It is empty. I'm using systemd-resolved for what it's worth.
~ > cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Resolver configuration file.

For anyone running in the same problem: You probably forgot to redirect your resolv.conf:
sudo ln -sf /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

It's been a while since I had this issue but I think I actually resolved it by installing dhcpcd. I'll tentatively mark it as SOLVED but I'll undo it if this answer makes no sense. It works for me now but I can't fully recall what did it.

this solved the issue for me
