Use any low maintenance Linux distro and install Steam through flatpak and you got the exact experience you want. There is no difference. You are waiting for something which might never come out so that installing might be 10 minutes faster. That is totally absurd.
Steam OS ist not more maintenance than any other low maintenance distro.
- danpalmer 1y agoI've used low maintenance Linux distros, and they're not comparable to Steam OS in my experience. It's not about a 10 minute install, it's about the hour here and there to update, to fix, to browse the Arch wiki to figure out why my bluetooth mouse doesn't work today. Linux is a lot better than it was 10+ years ago, but to say it's as low maintenance as a game console (which is what my Steam Deck is to me), is actually absurd.
- Matthyze 1y agoExactly. Linux is great but never actually 'low maintenance'. I personally felt like my OS needed frequent attention.
