  Allowed but janky, this is probably a more polished installer.

    I see, and yes, you needed some technical savvyness (is that a word?) to do this on your own before

      “Savvy” is both the noun for the trait and the adjective for someone who possesses it.

  It wasn’t officially supported for a long time even if they never stopped you. No real installer, etc. But now they started adding a lot more driver support even for hardware they aren’t going to use, which you only do if you want to let people use 3rd party hardware

  Allowed and available, but not endorsed.

  They only had the old SteamOS available for installing to anything but a Steam Deck.
