Thanks for letting me know! I really wanted to look at the UI when I realized what I was looking at, at the park, but I didn’t want to bother the employee. I appreciate that I got to see it in that video now
One of the beautiful things about Linux is it’s versatility. Many people want to use their hardware for things other than gaming. For instance, I saw a Steam Deck at Disneyland being used to operate “autonomous” robots in Star Wars Land.
For me, I have been doing the vast majority of my gaming on my Steam Deck ever since I got it, however, recently, I was wanting to do some programming work while I was out and about, and was running into a lot of road blocks trying to do it on my Steam Deck. They can be overcome, but I found myself thinking about how much easier it would be to do my work on it, if it had a different distribution installed.
The Steam Deck is a consumer appliance, and as such has reasonable safeguards in place to protect users from themselves. Some users want to go beyond what’s available out of the box, and I imagine that freedom is what motivates most people to put other operating systems on their device.
This is correct, but as an addendum, for a lot of very old games (that don’t fall into that previous category), it’s usually easier to get them working under Linux than it is under Windows. Go figure.
