The Steam Deck and it’s desktop mode are why I decided to try jumping head first into a single boot of Bazzite on my main computer, it’s basically like using a Steam deck, just across four monitors, it even has HDR support built in. A year in and I haven’t looked back.
This is the exact kind of user interaction I’m looking for. I’ve wanted to switch to Linux but need something stable I can use for my Steam library, and web browsing.
Something stable to do that I’ve found in fedora, pop_os, and even arch.
I use fedora everyday now since version 31 or 32 and it’s honestly great. I have my few issues but it’s not like I didn’t have issues on windows.
I think Linux is ready for the desktop and has been. Every year it just gets better
I’ve been single boot on Fedora for a little over a year. The biggest issue for gaming that I’ve seen are because of anti-cheats that don’t support Linux.
Help dissuade (or confirm) a fear here. Could this be the first step to a sort of Androidization of steamos?
What do you mean by “Androidization”?
I already game on Linux because of Steam. It’s easy and works.
Does SteamOS support non game programs, such as text, audio, modeling, and whatever other esiting software people use?
yes, it’s just arch linux under the hood, and there’s even a desktop mode which im pretty sure is kde
I want that so much.
That MB I just put in a box might be viable again? Wouldn’t upgrade to Win11 but worked great in every other way.
