The OLED Deck is easier to repair yourself if that is a consideration.

- Comment on Valve If You Are Listening Here Are More Accessories That Would Be Awesome!! 1 month ago:
I mean, no phone controller has the same layout as the steam controller.
100% exactly the same layout is impossible, when there has to be room for the phone cradle in the middle. If you want to clip the phone above the Steam Controller, just get one of those plastic holders where you can attach the regular Steam Controller at the bottom side.
If Valve could implement the software to support steaminput when streaming games to a phone from your PC or a cloud PC, that’d be kinda cool.
Steam Link already exists and Steam Input runs on the PC.
a controller with feature parity with the Steam Controller would be an innovation.
The phone’s touch screen already provides the touch pad functionality when using one of the controllers pictured above.

Maybe too far outside their wheelhouse still but can you imagine a Steam Phone?
Valve allows redistribution of the Steam client. Other than resources, there is little that would stop companies like Jolla to put the Steam client on their phones.

Would be cheaper than regular Steam Controller
Why would Valve make the same Steam Controller again but with a phone cradle in the middle and somehow make this cheaper? It would need to house the same hardware components as the regular Steam Controller AND possibly add an active cooler.
That’s even less realistic than Valve managers reading posts on Lemmy.

Why could a phone controller not have innovations such as those?
OP didn’t ask for additional innovations, OP asked for “the same functionality as the Steam Controller” which the slot-in things + the phone’s touch screen already provide.

Too bad it’s not available via RSS.
It’s not a podcast then. Podcast is a type of media format, not any recorded conversation.

You can install an Arch image as well. Distrobox should work fine with these OCI images: github.com/archlinux/archlinux-docker?tab=readme-…

The only time you might “tinker” with gaming is when you want to install, say, an emulator or Heroic from the Discover
ystore (flatpak) to play your non-Steam games, all of which is optional.Playing games from outside Steam is less tinkering in Bazzite than SteamOS because Bazzite supports those out of the box. I don’t have a Bazzite install in front of me right now but IIRC it comes with Lutris preinstalled.

Hopefully the maintainers of RetroDECK compile an ARM version until then: github.com/RetroDECK/RetroDECK/issues/1195

Also SteamOS runs Docker containers out of the box just fine because it ships podman.
- Comment on [Deck] A Linux Power User Puts SteamOS To Work 1 month ago:
tbh i havent bothered to attempt gaming on anything other than the steam deck.
At worst you need to install Steam on other distributions and then compatibility is no different than on SteamOS (on equal hardware because hardware, of course) because Steam runs its games inside standardized containers since some time.
- Comment on [Deck] A Linux Power User Puts SteamOS To Work 1 month ago:
SteamOS ships both podman and distrobox.
distrobox create --image registry.opensuse.org/opensuse/leap:16.0 --name opensuseto install openSUSE, for example, thendistrobox enter opensuseto use it. If you like rolling releases, install and then executeopensuse-migration-toolto upgrade to Tumbleweed or Slowroll. - Comment on [Deck] A Linux Power User Puts SteamOS To Work 1 month ago:
I haven’t had to fuck around with any game.
Noodle probably only knows Linux from fiddle distros and now thinks that SteamOS is the only one that works out of the box which is just not true. There are plenty of mainstream options like Bazzite.
- Comment on [Deck] A Linux Power User Puts SteamOS To Work 1 month ago:
I just use openSUSE in a Distrobox container on mine. Installation has a needless pitfall because for whatever reason installing TW directly is broken but installing Leap and then using opensuse-migration-tool works fine.
I’m using this container to evaluate Slowroll.

Support the vast majority of titles with minimal friction right out of the box.
Games run via Steam Linux Runtime which is the same across all Linux installations of Steam.
I don’t want to have do dick around and tweak shit when I want to relax with a video game
If you need to “tweak shit”, you have not fully compatible hardware (NVidia or so), something SteamOS won’t solve because it’s just a regular Linux distribution.
I want to be able to slap an OS on a PC and have it be Steam Deck But Bigger.
You already can. The SteamOS recovery image is explicitly for other systems as well since quite some time. People use it on the Framework Desktop, for example, even though the devices list does not feature that PC.
Don’t expect ever formal support for any hardware where Valve cannot control the drivers. They’ve been fucked by proprietary platform holders in the past, they don’t want to repeat this again. So either your hardware is fully supported by upstream kernel/Mesa drivers (which SteamOS already ships because it’s just another Linux distribution with absolutely not magic dust) or SteamOS will likely never work on those.

What do you expect it would do that other mainstream distributions don’t?

Android should be closest to native and more stable than Proton because Lepton is based on actual Android Open Source code, not 3rd party reverse engineering of Windows APIs.

by your bloody metric
It’s not my metric, I merely repeated what I remembered from one of the interviews and my astonishment from hearing what I heard.
If you “wasted christmas”, that’s your metric, not mine.
