minus-square@snowadv@lemm.eecakelinkfedilink5•edit-29 months agoWindows makes deck more like a laptop. No comfortable ui/sleep, so it’s like steam deck with everything good taken away but with compatibility.
minus-square@Whirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilink-8•edit-29 months agoI’ll take compatibility over sleep mode tbh. Most people play their steam decks at home anyway, so battery life isn’t an issue. The ROG Ally isn’t like a laptop at all either. The difference is that you can use it as a PC if you want, unlike the steam deck running steamOS.
minus-squareBlinkerFluidlinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-29 months ago…I can use steamOS like a PC if I want. It’s an arch-based KDE desktop with steam on it. I can do whatever I want to do. When was the last time you used Linux, 2008, lmao?
minus-square@Whirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilink0•9 months agoI clarified in other comments - people want windows as their pc, not Linux. The ROG Ally doubles as a full blown Windows PC. SteamOS is Linux as you know, and that’s not the OS of choice for the overwhelmingly large majority of the population.
minus-square@quarterlife@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilink0•9 months agoI don’t, why are you speaking for 7 billion people?
minus-square@Whirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilink0•9 months agoBecause one look at desktop OS market share proves my point.
minus-square@Whirlybird@aussie.zonelinkfedilink1•9 months agoDidn’t say you can’t, I said that it doesn’t give you a PC with an OS that the overwhelming majority of people want to use - windows.
