I cant figure out how to use the command my steam path is /home/vexeddiagarm22/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam and where my games are here /home/vexeddiagarm22/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/SteamLibrary thank you in advance.

Are you using the Flatpak version of Steam? In that case, you will need to install the Flatpak specific version of Protontricks. You can find the instructions here.

The STEAM_DIR environment variable is intended for more unusual use cases, and they can be set globally in different places, or only for the current command like this:

$ STEAM_DIR=/different/path/to/steam protontricks --gui

You can read more about setting environment variables here. However, I think the problem here is probably due to Steam being installed using Flatpak.
