I’m thinking about switching to SteamOS since it’s built for gaming. Most of my games run fine on Linux Mint, but not all of them. I also heard Valve say “it’s just a PC”, does that mean it’s suitable for software development too?

For those looking to take the leap:

Write image to USB, Boot to USB, press install from inside the live environment.
If you’re using AMD hardware you will have better luck, but it is not guaranteed to work.
Just a warning. Hitting the aforementioned “install” will wipe your machine’s first NVMe drive, and install SteamOS on it. It won’t ask questions.
