I know SteamOS is "kind of" immutable to some degree, but how's it going over on say Fedora Silverblue or openSUSE MicroOS or others?

edit: should also be clear, I'm wondering about SteamVR support too.

ive been using the steam flatpack on silverblue for a while now.

there are a few cases where steam wont start (less then once every 2 months i think)
that usually are resolved by updating the flatpack.

otherwise i have not noticed any other issues.

flatpaks might be out since I hear mixed reports about whether SteamVR even functions with the Steam flatpak.
