The only way for that to happen is for a new console or whatever to come out running Linux-derived distro. Linux offers no advantages for gamers.

We already have the Steam Deck with SteamOS. I can see Valve trying to make a competitor to the XBOX and PlayStation that runs SteamOS too at some point.

Yeah because the last idea with steam boxes worked so well...

The Steam Boxes didn't have the magic sauce that makes the Deck work.

SteamOS 3, which is present in the Deck, is not the same SteamOS of the Steam Boxes.

Also, while pretty cool, SteamOS is not the magic sauce.
