      What would an official steamOS desktop do that bazzite can’t? Unless you need commercial support because you are selling steam machines I don’t see how a official release would be of advantage.

        I think there’s just people that trust Valve more than Linux in general.

        SteamOS on the deck is extremely foolproof, and people who are otherwise scared of Linux seem to think SteamOS magically fixes every perceived issue with desktop Linux.

        That’s my best guess but I’m just some dude.

      I don’t really understand what this means. Can you explain the implications?

        For the implications, I believe it would create a first class commercial level competition for Windows. It would open the door for a vendor trusted platform that implemented all the anti-cheat technologies. Paving the way to lift the virtual Linux ban on first day AAA games compatibility.

      no, it runs on x86 as its essentially a semicustom AMD chip. AMD currently does not have any consumer facing ARM chips
