SteamOS is Valve’s Linux-based operating system. It features a seamless user experience optimized for gaming, while retaining access to the power and flexibility of a PC, and plays tens of thousands of games on Steam. SteamOS officially ships on Steam Deck, and will soon ship with certain Legion Go S models. We’re currently working on adding support for more devices.
This is the worst part of linux. I want to make the switch but the number of distros is overwhelming. Steam OS is appealing because honestly I just want the most tuned for gaming hands off version I can find.
If it exists just send me the link to the iso lmao.
Bazzite is the most “SteamOS” flavor of Linux you can get right now.
If you want an OS that has a little more control, go with Kubuntu, which is very friendly. When you’re comfortable with that and familiar enough with Linux to unhappy with Snaps and Canonical, switch to Fedora or OpenSUSE.
Yes, like any Linux running KDE. With Steam installed.

Honestly, these are the ones that matter. From those, you can choose depending on what type of work are you planning to do with your computer.
For servers: Red Hat (but it’s paid), OpenSUSE, Debian, FreeBSD
Desktop (very new hardware): Arch, Fedora
Desktop (other hardware): Mint, Ubuntu, Debian
Hardcore, embedded, very specific needs: Gentoo, Slackware, Arch
