Has anyone tried out SteamOS? (lemmy.world)

I'm thinking about switching to SteamOS since it's built for gaming. Most of my games run fine on Linux Mint, but not all of them. I also heard Valve say "it's just a PC", does that mean it's suitable for software development too?

I still haven't gotten to give it a full proper go. But Toolbx is designed to assist with development on immutable OSs. Let's you do regular package installs for all the various Dev tools into a container. Can either install your IDE into the container and run it like a regular app, or use an IDE with built-in Dev Container support.
