Optimism around the Steam Frame (self.linux)

Valve has been Linux friendly. It says the new steam frame "is a PC" and will run Steam OS but I feel like there's an insinuation that, like the steam deck, you can install whatever you like. I am cautiously excited at the premise of really digging in and having a Linux box strapped to my face.

Another friend has already referred to it as the Linux Vision Pro.

Edit: watching Linus tech tips review, it mentions side loading Android APKs as well

Arch, the base for SteamOS, doesn't have an official Arm build, for example.

Now I'm really excited to find out what they did with SteamOS on the Frame. It wouldn't be the first ARM build of Arch. But the way they've set up SteamOS they could even go with an entirely different base. Again.

I'd be happy if they are or support a stable version of ALARM.
