CS:GO not launching, I can't seem to find what does it and searched everything.
Hi there, not sure if it is a fault of the beta release, but my cs:go is not working on 21.10. I tried everything. It is remarkable to see it worked fine on 21.04 and I asked it on reddit where 2 people said they had the same issue since 21.10. I think it has something to do with the beta release. What it is, I am not sure of. I upgrade to 21.10, not fresh install.
You mention 20.10 in your message several times; I would recommend correcting those to 21.10 to avoid confusion. 20.10 is a valid number for a version that is no longer supported, while 21.10 is a valid number for the current beta. (You can remember the version numbers by Year.Month.)
Based on the issues over on Valve's github page it looks like the game may need to be updated to work on 21.10. I've included a link to one of the issues below if you would like to add your report there as well.

The post you linked it about ubuntu (probably the same issue), but the fix send in that post doesn't work on Pop!_OS 21.10. I am assuming this fix only work for ubuntu, not Pop
Reopening because it was re-reported in https://github.com/pop-os/beta/issues/305
apt install libtcmalloc-minimal4
cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4.5.9 /media/games/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike\ Global\ Offensive/bin/libtcmalloc_minimal.so.0
These fixed it for me. Mind you this is a dirty hack, but it stuck.
Just replace /media/games/... with /path/to/your/game/library.
