I do believe Moonlight is a bit better but Steam Streaming has been reliable and high enough quality for me not to care enough to use Moonlight most of the time.
Comment on The Steam Deck, nay Linux, is crying out for an official GeForce Now app

Heads up for anyone still using steam streaming and an Nvidia card.
Install Moonlight and run that instead. Way smoother experience overall.

I’ve played 100 hours of Elden Ring streaming and the difference between steam and moonlight is night and day in my experience. Steam struggled to hit 60fps streaming (definitely not the computer’s fault: it’s their streaming codecs or something) while moonlight is rock steady 60fps.

Don’t you need a PC for that?
GFN allows you to play on NVIDIA’s servers.

Yes but others are talking about steam streaming, which is also my comment here.
It’s tangential but worth calling out in this discussion, especially as you can do remote play with moonlight (haven’t personally tried it though)
