From my understanding Steam Decks come with SteamOS preinstalled on them. Yet when you look at the list of games on steam that are compatible with Linux + SteamOS, its a small fraction.

But what confuses me is this page

https://store.steampowered.com/steamdeck/mygames

It shows your games that are compatible with the Steam Deck which has a Linux based OS. And almost my entire library is compatible with the Deck. Can someone help me understand how this is possible? If games are compatible with the Steam Deck, why wouldn’t they also work on Ubuntu for example?

    Thanks for the tip. I’ll look into this. Does Nobara have regular security updates like the main Fedora OS?

    I’m fairly new to the whole Linux thing so I want to make sure my PC is secure while running Linux

      Yes, of course. It uses Fedora’s default repositories but adds it own repository with the customisations on top. So the update cycle is pretty much the same as Fedora.

      Nobara is made by the same guy who makes Proton-GE, ie, GloriousEggroll, so you know that this is a legit distro.
