Comment on Steam Hardware Announcement
dustyData@lemmy.world 2 hours agoThey don’t have to manufacture them all. That little SteamOS Compatible sticker is gonna kick Windows out of the gaming throne and push steam machines as the default livingroom gaming solution. One of the big things about this announcement is that it isn’t addressed only to customers, it is aimed at developers. The store page even has sections to announce that development kits are available.
I want to see The Year of the Linux Desktop™ as much as anyone else on this platform, but I think you're living in a bubble if you believe there's any universe in which this could suddenly dethrone Windows.
It'll carve out a good niche for itself, but that's really all it will be.

“it’s the year of Linux! This year is really it guys!!” lol
No cod, no battlefield, no gta, no apex, no any of the biggest games that the majority of the money-spenders buy. No chance of kicking windows out of the gaming throne whatsoever.
