Valve has been Linux friendly. It says the new steam frame “is a PC” and will run Steam OS but I feel like there’s an insinuation that, like the steam deck, you can install whatever you like. I am cautiously excited at the premise of really digging in and having a Linux box strapped to my face.

Another friend has already referred to it as the Linux Vision Pro.

Edit: watching Linus tech tips review, it mentions side loading Android APKs as well

    If Apple hardware can get Asahi Linux, I bet more open devices can get even better distro support.

    It has a snapdragon SoC. Arm Windows laptops with Snapdragon SoCs have significantly worse Linux support than Macbooks with Asahi Linux (ignoring the newer M3 and M4 chips that aren’t supported by Asahi yet)
