God damnit. I have a W10 drive left because SteamVR is still a little clunky on Debian.
I really hope valve comes out with a new release of SteamOS for desktops, the Steam Deck version is damned near flawless.

Really just does not seem like they are interested in doing it. I feel like they would’ve said something by now

A steam deck beta update from the past week or two that they were working on adding support for the ROG Ally. The verge asked valve about it, and they confirmed they’re actively working on making it support other handheld PCs.

Handheld =/= tower I want to build lol
- Fubarberry ( @Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz ) 1•23 days ago
Right, I would just assume bringing it to other handhelds is the first step in it having universal hardware support.
- SteveFromMySpace ( @SteveFromMySpace@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 1•23 days ago
Eh you’d think that but they haven’t done a desktop update since early 3.0. It’s been years
- Nik282000 ( @nik282000@lemmy.ca ) 3•23 days ago
It won’t make them any more money so it’s not like there is a financial incentive for them, but they do occasionally do things just because they aren’t assholes.
- SteveFromMySpace ( @SteveFromMySpace@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) 5•23 days ago
Honestly I would kill for a proper steamOS release. I’d even pay money for it.

Ditto, a purpose built gaming OS would be worth the price of avoiding Windows.

OpenShell is your friend then. I haven’t seen the Windows 8 or 10 menu in years except when using the text launcher to start OpenShell after I closed it.

Every day that passes, I feel more validated in my decision to no longer use their OS.

Thank you kindley Microsoft, It is what I crave! I need it like the Microplastics I got installed in my ballsack.

Linux looks more and more like the better choice. Some more reasons here despite the ad annoyance: https://www.xda-developers.com/reasons-linux-good-gaming/

I think the various debloat scripts (Chris Titus etc.) should take care of this.
Obviously this remedy is just harm reduction.
Going forward I will be maining various Linux distros and using Wine/Proton compatibility, or TinyWin10 on a VM, for any tasks that absolutely require Windows.

May I interest you with Ameliorated?
- PenguinTD ( @PenguinTD@lemmy.ca ) 2•22 days ago
I checked the website, so it’s like a micro scripted app compilation?? Does the thing is a run/tweak then close, or does it needs to reside as a background service/task?
- IDew ( @IDew@lemm.ee ) 2•22 days ago
You start with a fresh Windows install and run the playbook on it. It’s practically a one time script
- Lucy :3 ( @30p87@feddit.org ) 3•23 days ago
At least I could install Windows 10 in QEMU. I think I’ll go back to Win7 for VMs then.
