Linux Adoption Rate Surges on Steam Thanks to Support of SteamOS

I don't have a Steam Deck, though my brother and a bunch of my friends do, and that sh1t is pretty awesome. But I've been gaming in Linux more and more on my desktop PC (also laptop and secondary PC). I dual-boot Linux and Windows, but Linux has been my main OS for the past few years, so I've been testing the gaming waters there. My experimentation has been providing positive results. One of my friends switched to gaming only in Linux, and that's been working out well for him. I hope the numbers only continue to rise.
 
My living room Steambox exists only for the sake of playing computer games like a console on my TV.

Right now it's janky as heck, auto launching into windows, then launching steam in big picture mode.

I'd love to just slap Steam OS on there and have a dedicated gaming OS if I could guarantee my entire gaming library would work without issue.
