    Spin up some Linux distro while you wait.

    Especially if you're a "power user", you'll have a lot of unlearning to do, might as well get started and go in prepared for a lot of disappointment.

    I wouldn't count on Valve for a desktop OS. Their main responsibility is a good user experience on the Deck and Machine, which will be pretty console-like. Desktop mode's good enough for maintenance and modding, but not for vast hardware support.

    There are some other general recommendations across Lemmy, but the ones that come up a lot are PopOS, CachyOS, and Bazzite.
