Like a distro with certain bloat disabled to optimize for gaming?

Cool, can you run video rendering software on it? How about some cli? Can you delete packages? Or even remove the french language?

You are forgetting backwards compatibility with ancient software that Windows still supports after 30+ years.
A lot of businesses need that in order to function.

Sure, but they are comparing SteamOS, which is a stripped down OS that does not have all the capabilities of a full Linux OS.
Just try using Photoshop on SteamOS.

So? That still doesn’t change the fact that SteamOS is a stripped down version of Linux that can’t do everything a Linux computer can do.
So the comparison is flawed.

Why? Isn’t SteamOS a stripped down version of Linux?
- Comment on With the Legion Go S, we can now directly compare performance between official builds of SteamOS and Windows 4 days ago:
Because they aren’t just optimizing for gaming.
Any change they make would influence their other markets as well, like general and office use.

You’d think anyone techliterate would disable the bloat.

No, because Windows isn’t optimized for games. It is for general use, including games.

Even gamers do more than just game though.

So a specialized OS wins over a general OS in their specific tasks?
Say it aint so…
