The reason is ChimeraOS (used to be GamerOS) which completely took over SteamOS’s position as a big picture Steam Linux OS, and the method used on top of Arch base was such that you as a user didn’t have to generally customise anything, and no manual updating etc. I can’t believe the article wouldn’t even mention it, very poor research as it was the case that proved that the Debian stable base was ultimately a poor choice for both keeping pace with the latest graphics stack and even worse for upgrading the base requiring users to reinstall. I’ve been using Chimera for a while now, and really excited to see Valve are going that direction. https://chimeraos.org/about https://chimeraos.org/about
