The problem is they are doing so in a way that is directly at odds with getting people to adopt Linux. A previous commenter on this thread already explained that this video picks “hard mode” installation with very little support after mentioning other distros that are much better suited, gives basically no sensical reason why, and basically concludes that they aren’t happy with the result. How does that help with adoption?
Like it or hate it, SteamOS is what the people want. I mentioned in another comment about it. You can argue over what is a better distro all day, but in the end, what’s going to cause people to jump ship isn’t Bazzite - it’s SteamOS. Bazzite makes sense only to the people who already know what each distro is, and attempting to blame Linus (and, by proxy, the portion of his audience wanting to jump ship) for choosing SteamOS over Bazzite is exactly the sort of unwelcoming behavior that I’m concerned will drive away people. There are better and more productive ways of pushing for more established distros, but more importantly than that, we need to accept that SteamOS is a fundamental criterion for this set of audience to make a leap towards Linux, and we should be encouraging them to try out SteamOS instead of bikeshedding over which distro is best for people who have already made up their mind about SteamOS
