Steam, Chrome, VSCode, etc. I've been running Steam on F38 since Beta (and it helped me to discover an issue in mutter, which was later accepted as a blocker - but not because of Steam, but because of general issues). But if you want to have an explicit test case, Adam described how to do it. We could also have a test day for popular third-party software, if it makes sense. Note that we had proprietary software-related blockers in the past. We accepted the EAC glibc issue as a blocker in one of the recent releases. We also accepted the RPM signatures change as a blocker for F38. But in these cases, it was always accepted as an exceptional blocker confirmed by FESCo. I guess it makes sense to use this exceptional process for these cases (blocking on issues with third-party software, which can affect our user base badly). We could talk about some general rule related to popular third-party software, but that would again need to go through FESCo. At the moment, we only block on our own code in our own workflows, with a few very specific exceptions (boot usb creation, dual boot configuration, cloud images deployment).
