I’ve seen a lot of comments online of people saying they’ll leave Windows 10 once SteamOS has general availability. I fear that’ll lead them to having a bad experience with Linux because they’ll be expecting a desktop OS but instead receive an OS that turns their computer into a console. There’s a couple features Bazzite has (like printer drivers) which you might want on something replacing Windows 10 but you probably don’t care about if you have a handheld or a steam machine
SteamOS (the deck) does have printer support now.
Valve does seem to be putting affort into making sure the desktop mode is a complete experience.
