SteamOS information page

Users should not consider SteamOS as a replacement for their desktop operating system. SteamOS is being designed and optimized for the living room experience.

It was over before it began. Annoying Linuxfags will probably seethe at people who shoot it down regardless though.

Yeah, this is just Pippa going
>New thing? I like new things
Without really understanding the hows and whys most people who stream and play games use windows, someone corrected that already though
I agree with you on the basis of it being Linux and Pippa isn't tech savvy at all to be able to figure out basic Linux Operating Systems.

This page is massively outdated. The current build of SteamOS is Arch-Linux based and this page says that it's Debian based while also advertising Steam Machines (something deprecated back in like 2017). The current rumor being spread is that maybe by the end of the year Valve will announce a Desktop installer of SteamOS for people to download.

I will say that personally, as someone who does subscribe to the idea currently that eventually Linux will be the future. I think that if you've been at the whole terminally online thing for at least a decade or so, picking up a Linux operating system can't hurt. Microsoft isn't going to get better and they're more likely to shit out something worse than Win11 than give us something to at least be as good as 10 or even 7. The support for Linux is gradually growing! It will never match Windows but, it's nowhere near the level of the stereotypes that nothing fucking works on Linux unless you're giga-autistic. I'd honestly rather jump into whatever unknown waters Linux has going on than run like 3 different Windows debloater programs/powershell scripts to get something decent.

SteamOS is basically making the barrier to entry tiny compared to others, or at least the perception of entry. Support and all that will snowball with it if enough people switch if they think the pros out way the cons of windows, which I hope happens. I've thought about switching to linux, and steamOS rumors is getting me closer than ever to actually deciding to pull the trigger.

If Pippa wanted to use steamos for gaming she could do what a lot of streamers do and go with a dual PC setup.
PC 1 with steamOS- exclusively built and setup for gaming with decent graphics, focusing on repeat reliability and performance. no unnecessary programs or running services.
PC 2 with windows - runs vtube studio, OBS, Chat windows, discord, etc. Geared towards multitasking and speed.

also why does pippa want furries to look at her feet?
