Hey Nick @thelinuxEXP this is quite interesting.

I have no desire to use this, but given Square Enix is now backing them, that's a bit strange!

What is this marketing though?

Like gtfo, you're building off of Valve's work, you even reference Lutris and Heroic Games Launcher and claim that SteamOS is 'Compatible with Steam only' and 'Locked to the Valveverse' like what?

I'm not even saying that a gaming distro not tied to Valve's ecosystem is a bad thing, but the desperation to paint SteamOS as on par with Windows is absurd.
