Install Flatseal and then open it and remove the environment variable "GDK_SCALE=2" from Steam.

Looking here:
I see the manual cmd at the bottom of the page but don't see a way to verify the src of the pkg.

I just install LM Cinnamon in a vm and install Steam, after that enabled Steam Play for all games and I was then able to install a game and launch a game. It might be useful to see a screenshot of where you were getting that message.
Installed Flatseal and rm-ed the variable-
Re-launched Steam, signed into my Steam acct. and it crashed, again!
I'll see if removing the flatpkg has the same effect. Then re-install Steam via the Linux Mint pkg.

Don't forget to remove the Steam Flatpak directory.
Code:
rm -rf ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam
I find it strange that it's working now, it may help to know where you got the error you mentioned in your OP because that part still isn't quite clear.I'll download Apex Legends and see what happens.
But before that I need to chill for a bit-
Where did you see that error before and while you were doing what, a screenshot of where you saw that might be helpful to understand?
I saw that error in a small black window about 2 inches tall by 2 inches wide that pop up in the middle of the screen when I wanted to play a certain game while logged into Steam in Firefox. I clicked on a green box that say 'Play Now' and that produced the black window with the error.
