From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Dude straight up says "SteamOS doesn't work on everything" and in almost the same sentence says "Bazzite is cool". This guy does not understand puters AT ALL 🤣
Also, the rant about the terminal while complaining about Arch about made me laugh so hard I'd sploosh.
Using a tool for a job you don't understand will yield unexpected results, fool. 😘
I guess I don't understand them either. Care to explain?
I also don't understand them
What's wrong about that statement? Try installing SteamOS on Nvidia hardware and tell me how it went ;) why do you think Bazzite exists in the first place? SteamOS in it's current state is not meant to be installed on other hardware, it's a recovery image for the deck. Sure, if you have compatible AMD hardware you COULD do it, but you can't even choose which drive to install it on cause there is no proper installer. If you want the SteamOS experience on other devices just use Bazzite.
