Really just does not seem like they are interested in doing it. I feel like they would’ve said something by now

A steam deck beta update from the past week or two that they were working on adding support for the ROG Ally. The verge asked valve about it, and they confirmed they're actively working on making it support other handheld PCs.

Handheld =/= tower I want to build lol

Right, I would just assume bringing it to other handhelds is the first step in it having universal hardware support.

Eh you’d think that but they haven’t done a desktop update since early 3.0. It’s been years

It won't make them any more money so it's not like there is a financial incentive for them, but they do occasionally do things just because they aren't assholes.

Honestly I would kill for a proper steamOS release. I’d even pay money for it.

Ditto, a purpose built gaming OS would be worth the price of avoiding Windows.
