The recent news that SteamOS may soon be shipped with third-party devices could be particularly important for Linux gaming on desktops.

      If you haven’t already, take a look at Bazzite for your desktop. I’ve actually replaced SteamOS with it.

          @mesamunefire @themadcodger in tunisia at least, the number one way to play games is:-through piracy (I hate piracy but if you are born in tunisia then it is very very hard to pay for anything virtual like games) -via launchers like Battle.net for HS -via custom .exe like for Project Celeste… in short Steam is not the only way to get games, Steam OS and by consequence the Steamdeck is not even officialy on sale in tunisia anywhere and going to desktop mode requires intellect which is not common

            Interesting. Yeah I can see that being an issue.

            I’ve heard it can be hard to get a steam deck or steam deck adjacent machines outside official stores.
