How? SteamOS is still Linux.

Yeah, I misspoke lol. I meant to say Arch but I shortcirced or something.

Because you hear "Arch" and it gives the impression that they're being played on a Linux desktop, not a Steam Deck

While that may be true, I still use my Steam Deck in desktop mode for a bunch of stuff besides gaming. Writing, job applications and interviews, using reddit because it's the only device I have that isn't detected for ban evasion, watching shows/Youtube. Maybe I'm atypical, but I don't see why the Deck would offer a desktop mode if it wasn't meant to be used.
