- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

If this form factor is here to stay, and hopefully it is, Microsoft will probably adapt Windows to it (also hopefully). SteamOS is very good though, can manufacturers not just use that?
I could see them pushing an Xbox handheld in the near future.
Microsoft will likely do fuck all and have us all rely on third-party solutions.
I think other manufacturers aren't using SteamOS for 2 main reasons:
1: They get to brag about universal compatibility, even if that's not a huge gap anymore
2: They aren't dependent on a direct competitor for their software
Except Valve isn't a competitor to any of these hardware manufacturers if they also have SteamOS.
