SteamOS now runs on every AMD handheld, and Valve didn't even make a big deal about it (www.xda-developers.com)

I see this mostly as pre-work for supporting the Steam machine. But nevertheless it is a Big Deal for the Handheld Market because now SteamOS now becomes an even better option for most of the Handhelds available. Maybe some manufacturers might even think about shipping their devices with SteamOS.

Me personally I am very happy with the Lenovo Legion Go S on Steam OS (just bought the Windows version and replaced it with Steam OS). With the better support we can feal more comfortable to recommend SteamOS for users of other devices.

Yes. And the first one to ship something pocket sized with SteamOS and able to run Balatro is going to break the Internet.

It's possible to play Steam (and GOG/Epic/whatever) games on phones nowadays via GameNative
