    It’s nice to see portable PC gaming become easy, but at least for me, it’s not just about that. The Steam Deck has raised the bar, by also bringing freedom from Microsoft’s ecosystem by default. I would rather have it.

    (And I would rather give my money to Valve, who have been investing significantly in making that ideal a reality.)

        I think you somehow missed the main point of my comment.

        Not to diminish other companies for bringing hardware to market, but Valve is also funding the developers of the open-source software that makes games built for Windows run well without Windows, and is providing free support for it, with great success. It has dramatically improved the Linux gaming experience not only for handhelds, but also for desktop gamers. Including people who don’t use Steam at all.

        (And sadly, Lenovo, Aya, and GPD answer to and help to fund an incredibly predatory government that I do not want in my life and cannot in good conscience support.)

      Valve doesn’t get the credit it deserves for innovating if not keeping alive the PC space. Steam came out at a time where PC gaming was dying on store shelves, there was no support for it by triple A publishers…it was a dark time. And everyone hated Steam at first. Took a lot of work attracting smaller/indie devs to the platform to prove itself as a viable option for larger publishers.

      They’ve proven that Linux is a great operating system for games, and without the overhead that is Windows. The ability to natively play Windows games isn’t enough of a draw for me to use the Ally or Legion.

        Why would someone buy this to install Linux on it when the Steam Deck is already running Linux out of the box?

              This isn’t the steam deck? It’s a Lenovo handheld? The comment I replied to said it was probably running windows - so I said - just install Linux? What does the steam deck running Linux have to do with this other device? I haven’t read the article - I was just telling the commenter they didn’t have to stick with windows if that was the OS.

              Seriously sorry if I have offended anyone. I know the steam deck runs Linux, I just missed the connection you made.

    Pretty cool.

    They need to make a grip for the controllers like the one for Joycons.
