There's a really long road ahead. The work put together by the Bazzite team truly shines in a regular desktop setup when you factor in things like internationalization, Nvidia support, added gaming hardware support, Homebrew package manager, virtualization, Android apps, Sunshine / Moonlight streaming, and more.

I mean I've been using images from Chimera and Bazzite for years and I doubt SteamOS has anything they don't. 🤷

Maybe they are angling for the data from installing on multiple systems. Gaming optimized versions of … things. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I have three all AMD systems, did not work on either. Installed fined but when it loaded, just a black screen so I'm using bazzite now which loads fine.
