How about they release steam is for competitors

Edit: steamos

Considering all the competitors are windows based, they already have access to steam. And the open source holo iso(steam OS) is available if they want to use it.

I had a typo, I meant steamos

I don't think Holo iso completely open source. He's just imagining the steam deck os and runs into compatibility issues all the time

Holo iso is completely open source. The reason for the compatibility issues is that it is forked from software meant for a very specific device so there will always be issues on other devices if it is used as is
