Q: New to linux, is steam os an ok pseudo casual distro? - eviltoast

I want to get some experience with Linux before win 10 goes end of support. I won’t be using this machine for work. Gaming primarily but also 3d printing and possibly some light piracy. Is there any reason not to install steam os?

Thanks in advance kind and wise nerds in my phone.

    From quick reading, SteamOS 3.0 is only really available for the Steam Deck. As such, I would not recommend it for a desktop user. Earlier versions of SteamOS are no longer supported. Don’t take this as gospel, as I may be mistaken.

    Still, I would personally suggest looking in to a more desktop oriented OS for now.
