People... Windows and Xbox is not an improvement (it can be even worse). Build a Linux Gaming PC, that's true freedom.
The main appeal of consoles is that you can essentially just plug and play without having to worry too much about extra configuration. As much as I like Linux, it’s generally not a good alternative for console folks who just want to relax and play video games.
A lot of Linux works out of the box now. If folks started selling preconfigured Linux machines like you can buy for windows, that's all most people need. Valve is following a good strategy
yes i mean its so close now. there are preconfigured linux installs. nobara for example.
Yeah, I have a steam deck and I've used the desktop a few times, just to check stuff out, but I very easily could have overlooked it completely. It's perfectly possible for a linux computer to be as easy to use as a console.
