No it's not
Does this mean I can install SteamOS on any device? We expect most SteamOS users to get SteamOS preinstalled on a Steam Deck or device that incorporates SteamOS. The only devices officially supported on SteamOS right now are Steam Deck and Legion Go S.
Just because it's not officially supported does not mean it's released.
And it was released in 2013. This post title doesn't make much sense.
Steam OS 3 has basically no ties its processors which makes this release meaningful
They say that any AMD powered handheld should work. This is not a contradiction to your post:
Currently, expanded support includes devices with AMD hardware and an NVME drive, targeted toward handheld devices. Please note, support for all devices that is not officially 'Powered by SteamOS' is not final (currently anything that is not a Steam Deck or Legion Go S)
It's released in the sense that they have a recovery image to reinstall it on officially supported devices, it isn't the desktop SteamOS release people are saying it is. You still shouldn't use it as a normal distro
According to redditors bazzite is still the better solution for the ROG Ally.
I was interested in installing it on mine but honestly I mostly play Gamepass games so it doesn’t make much sense for me
Can't speak for handhelds, but I've been running Bazzite on my desktop for a year now and I love it. There are probably use cases for which an immutable distro can be limiting, but for my purposes it hasn't been an issue at all.
I just switched my laptop and desktop to Bazzite and it's quite cool, if I were installing a custom OS on a device I'd rather install that than SteamOS
It was released 12 years ago.
(Either way I edited the tile, and to be precise, it was released 11 years and 7 months ago)
SteamOS was originally released in 2013 - I'm not sure why this post says it's finally 'released' now.
Its talking about the newer SteamOS 3.0
No the guys is right, at first the title did only mention SteamOS, that's why!
Its talking about the newer SteamOS 3.0
SteamOS 3.0 was released March 2022, so more than 3 years ago.
Lol "finally".
