  • I’m guessing the reasons Valve chose Arch are mostly related to ability to build and maintain a distro based on it. On SteamOS, Valve is responsible for the system working. On plain Arch, a lot of that is on you.

    So maybe stay if you want to take the challenge and learn. You already installed it so thet’s something. Or switch to a normal distro if you’d rather not bother.

    For flatpak, it’s a package format for distributing “apps”, that works on about any distro out there. Most of the time it’s fine, but steam is an exception. Don’t use flatpak steam, the sandboxing breaks it.
