If the Steam Machine ships without a dumb-proof way to use Netflix, Spotify & YouTube, it will be a weird thing to have in a living room.

They better deploy Waydroid not only for ARM but for x86 too.

    Imagine if Valve actually fully rolled out running Android stuff on SteamOS as a whole via the compatibility layer Proton, and not just for the Steam Frame. That would be very interesting, and perhaps already in their plans.

    Honestly I'm shocked they haven't done this already. With the latest Epic case coming to a close they'd be fools not to...

    Would you run a Valve SteamOS Linux phone that also runs Android apps flawlessly? I know I would. I'm sure that's not it, but I totally would. Lol

    I mean it would be a directly horizontal move in a huge market they don't yet exist in. So it would make market sense.

    They have been building out incredible hardware teams, so they probably have the expertise.

    I think I'm talking myself into hope. Lol
