I have a huge enthusiasm for what Valve has done here. This is a serious disruption in the Big Tech force.
I'm very happy myself to help anybody at any time to get the heck off of any of the offerings of the 5 Big Tech corporations. An increase in Linux means that Google loses, Apple loses, and Microsoft loses. That's a goal worth fighting for.
Valve's Steam Deck just for this reason, is completely amazing.

Any screenshots? Are we talking a decent GUI desktop, terminal only, a barebones thing or ?

Console gamers dont care about disk partitions, USB vendor codes, process ids, etc. They buy consoles because they dont want to learn, or they want to learn the least amount possible in order to have their game work.
A PC is a TOOL. One that you have to learn. And in the case of a Linux PC, it is a highly customizable tool that requires event more learning.

When did “main” become a verb?

I am not sure why I would want this as opposed to a nice Android phone running Lineage OS.
