Actually, you can get most of Valve's work without SteamOS. I'm running Mint and it works great.

Actually, that's not what I want or need.

First party support here needs to include system drivers (including GPU) from primary sources (aka no "just add this repo and install this DKMS and run that installer", it should work OOTB for the most common hardware).

That's what has happened to me. I haven't installed a single driver yet, in about a year.

But I dunno. Maybe I just won the lottery.

I'll give it a go sometimes, but the AMD CPU + Nvidia GPU combo wasn't exactly winner the last time I tried.

Yeah, that might not work as well. I'm on a Framework laptop that hasn't been modified much.
