I think that SteamOS is a great place to start people off with Linux.

edit: I mean if you plug a steam deck into mouse and keyboard and use it as a linux box.

it has the support of another company hiding as “games” and can WINE pretty easy with Steam controlling the WINE.

I don’t think they will officially support it outside of the deck IMO, having used one in the flesh they have hardware optimization down to a tee - which to me really rounds off the deck experience.

The rapid sleep/wake and some options in the quick access menu would likely need some ironing out on other hardware configs, not sure how nvidia card support would work too…
