Debunk from dev Pierre-Loup Griffais ‪@plagman.bsky.social‬

"we've done pre-release Mesa Vulkan work on every AMD architecture since Vega thanks to them kindly providing hardware, so there's nothing meaningful to read into there."

From reddit:

is this trust worthy?

Extasis mentions this guy handledeck as the source

https://xcancel.com/HandleDeck/status/1886501899832021224#m

which links to this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgKzbHIWDK4

which just mentions this article https://www.phoronix.com/news/Mesa-25.0-RADV-RDNA4-State

I'm not sure what would be the point. Isn't it "just" a PC with Steam OS running on it? Would it be to help people just default to SteamOS?

Optimization profiles for games to target the specific hardware. It would be for people that want a steam deck like device that isn’t portable. Which would probably sell more units than a steam deck now. If priced right I would put it in my living room. It just needs to have the QOL that comes with console for couch gaming.

Sure, which would be great for people who don't want to build their own PC or buy an expensive prebuilt.
