I disagree. I don’t believe that distinction is relevant. My reasoning is that the large number of SteamOS users allows Valve to justify spending time and resources improving things like Mesa and amdgpu (edit: and of course Proton, which is huge), which benefits many Linux gamers that do not own Steam Deck. I use the SteamOS compositor (gamescope) on my desktop PC because it’s great—-and it probably wouldn’t exist without SteamOS.
The only reason I care about the number of Linux users is because more users means more development resources. Using that criteria, Steam Deck users very much “count”.
