        I’d consider it if it was SteamOS, since I love the Steam Deck, but it’s performance is just shy of where I’d like it to be.

        No SteamOS is a hard pass from me though. I’ve just finished ditching Windows on my gaming PC, I don’t intend to back step back to Windows, especially on a handheld.

            Hard agree with you. I don’t own a handheld, but have friends with steamdecks and a friend who has an ROG Ally. My buddy installed Linux on his ally, and the experience is objectively worse than the steamdeck.

        I’ll pay that for a handheld that can do 100fps in CS2 and BO3at 1080p. I’ll turn down even that if it’s windows. If I’m installing Bazzite, it’ll be because I don’t want the immutable SteamOS rather than because I was stupid enough to pay a company for a Windows license.
