There are some in this community who are willing to go into "2008 web forum user in a PlayStation vs Xbox thread" over basically any consumer electronics they buy. Not just in terms of PC handhelds, but stuff like graphics card vendor too. It's wild.

Bought a steam deck? Well then everything else is utter SHIT and those people are MORONS. Anybody that doesn't buy a Steam Deck should be Windows only, even if that disadvantages me too!

We should be welcoming of people running whatever OS they want, and welcoming of manufacturers giving the option of SteamOS. Even more so when it will benefit Linux (and by extension Steam Deck) gamers.
