    Maybe. As it stands Valve is rather open with their implementation, but who’s to say it will remain indefinitely so.

    I do get the desire, though. I’ve gone to Bazzite and Fedora and – even though it’s a lot better than just a year ago – it still requires some commandline tweaking. It isn’t entirely smooth sailing yet.
    Will SteamOS be? I do have some doubts.

      FWIW been using SteamOS on the SteamDeck for ~3 years now and from gaming to tinkering, no major problems. Never had to tinker hard or re-install. A couple of time it didn’t suspend properly or I had to hold power button of to force a shutdown but that’s about it.

      I doubt Valve would back of from the openness because that’s their one single advantage.
