That is absolutely massive. Props to them for continuing to invest into the tools they use

Admit to not reading the whole article but does this mean they’re finally going to officially release SteamOS 3 for desktops? Or am I stuck with hacky ports from the Steam Deck?

Not directly helping with SteamOS 3. But this financial support is helping Arch improve.

Right. We all know Steam Deck is running on Arch. And also that Steam previously did publicly release SteamOS for awhile (Debian based). So hopefully one day soon they get ballsy enough to push a new/modern official linux build and profit. They haven’t even taken the old links to the SteamOS builds down. I mean c’mon!

I don’t think that the unofficial steamos ports are “hacky” if you mean unstable or bad.
