Steam Deck OS on a PC | ChimeraOS
Testing ChimeraOS – an Arch Linux distro based on the Steam Deck UI – on a near console-equivalent gaming PC.
While building my “console equivalent” PC for a previous video, I captured a lot of footage using ChimeraOS – an intriguing choice of operating system for anyone building a PC for the living room. Unfortunately, I ended up being forced to swap back to Windows for that video, but I decided to put this one together so that I could talk a little about my positive experience with Chimera, along with a few issues that came up.
