Isn’t even the steam deck Linux nowadays?
It is, and there are still some games that are borked, but most are quite good.
This site is great for finding out what games work. https://www.protondb.com/
Yeah it's skinned Arch Linux
Well, with an immutable filesystem and a customized kernel and mesa stack with backports from newer versions... so, really just an Arch-based distro in its own right
I....don't know. I wanna say it is, but like a special proprietary version or something. I really got nothing here.
It's just Arch Linux with the Steam UI and some extra packages pre-installed.
It definitely feels like they made a lot of additional little tweaks to KDE to make it work better with the display and built-in controls.
That might just be tweaking default settings, KDE is ridiculously flexible. They definitely didn't dig very deep into it or gamescope wouldn't be a thing.
