I wish Valve would try to build a desktop OS. They surely have the bankroll to do something like that.

I'm curious what percentage of Windows users are only using it for gaming? Are there any stats on that?

The Steam deck already runs Arch and you can use the thing as a desktop computer, so that OS pretty much is just Linux. Valve has invested a lot to make the ecosystem better and I've little doubt they'll continue to do just that.
