You need to download the packages
Code: [Select]
artix-archlinux-support
and
Code: [Select]
lib32-artix-archlinux-support
which contain dummy systemD files that satisfy soft dependencies (like steam).

The solution would be:

Code: [Select]
pacman -S world/webkit2gtk
"Wer alles kann, macht nichts richtig"

Artix USE="runit openrc slim openbox lxde gtk2 qt4 qt5 qt6 conky
-gtk3 -gtk4 -adwaita{cursors,themes,icons} -gnome3 -kde -plasma -wayland "
