*Like how much optimization did they do in SteamOS vs Linux in general?

Is SteamOS minimal changes just so it boots directly into the store and run everything full screen by default, or did they make deeper changes?

    Depends how much optimization they did in SteamOS specifically vs Linux in general. I’m not sure how things work on that level.

      That’s fair. Though usually optimization process includes some specific device too, for SteamOS it’s Steam Deck. However if I don’t remember it wrong they were planning to release it for PC as well, in that case I’m not sure. Also someone already explained it with gamescope thing, I have no idea what that is though, gotta check.
