It's very funny to see so many people waiting for a desktop version to switch to Linux on their computer when it wasn't developed to be a desktop OS in the first place and there's similar OS actually meant to be used on desktop PCs that exist...
Yes, like any Linux running KDE. With Steam installed.
This is the worst part of linux. I want to make the switch but the number of distros is overwhelming. Steam OS is appealing because honestly I just want the most tuned for gaming hands off version I can find.
If it exists just send me the link to the iso lmao.
If you’re looking for a desktop version of SteamOS and are used to using Windows, your best bet is likely Bazzite with the KDE desktop environment. There are mixed feelings among Linux users about immutable distros, (many of the more advanced users feel it is too limiting), but there’s no denying the Bazzite is the most straightforward way to get things like Nvidia drivers and HDR.
Awesome. Thank you .
Is it niche or does it have a pretty big community for trouble shooting?
It has a decent community, yes. It’s basically the go-to gaming distro for many people.
Isn't steam os immutable anyways? They wouldn't be waiting for much
