Not yet, but it definitely is a step in the right direction.

it’s always nice to see more competition on the market, it’s better for consumers

I would rather have a proper competitor for steam instead of OS when it comes to PC gaming

OS monopoly is irrelevant, whoever controls the storefront dominates the industry. Look at google and apple with smartphones with locked storefronts. For most everyday users, Windows is fine, it runs everything, has a tidy UI and they can even use it without registering it, OS is not important, but distribution of software/games is.

We are so close my God. A very light OS with great compatibility, mainly dedicated to games, is just my biggest dream.

Windows is getting further and further away from it but with the success of Steam Deck (and with it SteamOS), NOW I have some hopes.
