There's also some games that specifically only allow a Steam Deck to run them already. That's the point of the SteamOS Verification.
Also because having someone with a proper customer support team not made of a bunch of volunteer developers who may not take kindly to a silly question is kinda nice.
Linux is just the kernel, as NT is to Windows, or XNU is to Mac OS X.
not every distro of Linux is geared towards the vast majority of desktop PC users, and IMHO none would be ready for a massive exodus of Windows users - their use cases, scenarios, and issues.
im predicting that when windows 11 dies instead of this massive switch, most people still on w10 right now will just continue using it despite security concerns, the majority of other people will get windows 11, and a small % will maybe switch to linux
It's more that it's something from a name that is relatively trusted and it's less intimidating than Linux as a whole appears at first glance. I have been considering swapping to Linux since I need to get a new CPU and probably new memory anyways, just need a couple other parts before I can

(Also you don't need SteamOS, it doesn't do anything special)
like you can just go game on linux right now and in most games there are benefits lol
what are they waiting for
At the same time, the immutability part might end up being frustrating to people haha
Steam OS doesn't do anything unique, the secret sauce is steam itself
