  i know but it’s a thread full of windows gamers and that’s more or less the important takeaway for them. i know there’s a lot more to it than that.

  no.

  SteamOS is based on Arch, which is what I’m running right now.

  Arch comes with the kernel, a package manager, some generic drivers to get you started, and a CLI. That’s it. Zero bloat.

  It’s not “stripped down”, it’s not hobbled for the sake of extra performance, it actually has more system components than my daily driver. You can get ahold of the recovery ISO and go install it on any box, it’s not really super specialized beyond supporting video games.

  “De-bloating” and “stripping down” are things Windows users do, because Windows is bloated and fucky and awful. That’s just not a thing on Linux dude.

  this is the funniest thing i’ve read all week. Arch comes with the kernel, some generic drivers, BASH, and the package manager. there’s nothing to strip down.

  yes, it’s a desktop OS. it’s literally arch linux. i have a friend who slaps the steamos recovery image on every pc now and just uses it as their go-to daily driver.

  yeah it took me a while, it’s an awful graph

  Finally an extra 3 1/2 hours of… dead cells? 3 more hours of… FPS? the hell is this graph?

  iirc the original SteamOS for the SteamBox was Debian-based (like Ubuntu), i think they switched it to Arch since it moves a bit faster and offers a bit better compatibility.

  why is fps labeled with hours and minutes? what is “dead cells” and why is it also labeled hours and minutes?
