   Brodie Robertson and everybody else in the linux world keeps yelling at people for wanting steamOS on PC when they should "just install bazzite".
   
   It is impossible to explain to a linuxfag that their failed community ecosystem is in large part due to their compete inability to name things.
   "SteamOS" -- it's an OS for steam
   "ChromeOS" -- it's an OS for chrome
   "Microsoft Office" -- "I guess that's tools you'd use in an office"
   "Mapquest" -- guess I look at maps
   "Door dash" -- "they dash things to your door
   "Minecraft" -- you mine things and you craft things
   
   "bazzite" -- what the fuck does that mean
   "gnome" -- what the fuck does that mean
   "mutter" -- is that like a mumble alternative?
   "Wayland" -- like from Aliens?
   "minetest" -- sounds like Minecra-- oh wait you changed it to "Luanti" WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN

     @RustyCrab the thing is somewhat that but also the fact that steamOS has the company Valve behind it and a product can be bought that runs it, most normal people don't wanna mess their computer to install another Os

     @phnt @RustyCrab the thing with bazzite is that it's not bad but 99% of people aren't going to want to install another OS on their own, that number will probably go down if steamOS gets a "you can install this on any pc" release but it's still not going to be the majority

     @mischievoustomato @RustyCrab It's a cringe "immutable" OS anyway. At least steamOS has a reason to be like that, bazzite does not other than being normie friendly, which is a bad thing anyway.

     @RustyCrab SteamOS is Arch Linux, though, and ChomeOS is Gentoo. So, these two things are Linux themselves.

     @Kyonko802 @DarkMahesvara it can work in the corporate world DESPITE the bad name because they spend billions on marketing. In most cases even when the name is bad it still had a guessable meaning. See "tubi" above. its rare to come across a corporate example as bad as "bazzite" or "luanti".
     
     Notable exception are those fucking corporate enterprise flavor of the month apps. "Jizz me on Smackdog". Those are not dependent on public marketing so much as being shilled to idiotic IT department leads that feel like switching platforms every month and then shoving them down the employees throats.
     
     Edge is a genuinely bad name and if it were a little Foss project web browser I would bash it equally hard.

     @RustyCrab people want steamos because like with the steam deck a recognizable brand offering something makes normies think "oh they will take care of me so no need to be scared" even when the end result would be almost the same. thats the whole purpose of SAAS so smarter people can sells retards the same thing but in nice wrapping paper.

     @DarkMahesvara my point has literally nothing to do with existing branding. It's about using words that have meaning to people.
     "Map quest"
     "Office"
     "Door dash"
     none of these words are branded. Branded words are just a subset of that because people would know what "steam" means, therefore they can derive meaning from the concatenation "steam" "os" = "something to do with gaming" "operating system"

     @mischievoustomato @RustyCrab @phnt it's going to be a year to 2 years imo before we see a desktop steam os release. The red hat open source nova drivers for nvidia rtx 2k and beyond cards aren't passed their infancy.
     We aren't going to see anything happen until they're ready as Valve isn't going to package nvidia's linux graphics drivers in their SteamOS image.
     The best you'll get for desktop steamos from valve is them releasing a steambox or you hamfisting the steam os recovery image onto an all AMD pc build.

     @KaiserKitty I was actually just wondering whether Windows was a good name or a bad name. I think I'd side with "good" because it's descriptive for the reasons you mentioned.
     
     "Macintosh" is less descriptive but at least catchy and easy to remember.
     
     Naming isn't entirety responsible for success or failure of a product but it's a friction point. If your product has nothing else going for it, a bad name can take an uphill battle and make it downright impossible.

     @alyx even those aren't as bad as the examples I gave. At least I know what they do except k3b, and Kate I guess

     @RustyCrab Don't think that bad names are limited to Linux ecosystem, but it does suffer the most there I guess. As much as I love KDE... "Kcalc", "Kate", "Konsole", "K3b", "Kasts"... just... stop...

     @Inginsub @RustyCrab
     Through the KDE distro I started with, I think Kate was the default. And I kept using it. That would have been 8 years ago, so hope my memory is correct. On what I use now, it's not, and I have to install it. But I think it's still the better known text editor for KDE.

     Great program! Love the thing. The only reason I can find it is I managed to remember it starts with "cz".

     @RustyCrab "xserver" -- this helps your display manager show you stuff. We know this to be true because it has an 'x' in its name.

     @pettanko @KaiserKitty @dsm I haven't used steamOS but I'm guessing it probably doesn't randomly corrupt itself or force you to open a terminal to do basic things.

     @RustyCrab @dsm its tubi because people call the tv "the tube" as slang due to CRTs. Idk man you tell most people to go watch free shows on tubi and they dont care. What does Hulu mean? What do Fox's have to do with TV? What does a rainforest have to do with shipping (cutting down trees to make cardboard boxes i guess)? As long as you have good marketing and a distinct name thats all that matters. I think you are way too caught up on names tbh. If you tell someone "Oh Bazzite is like SteamOS but for desktops rather then handhelds" they will get it if they know what steamOS is. You dont just have bazzite isos sitting at korger for granny to buy lol

     @RustyCrab @pettanko @dsm most corruption issues are just bad updates which fedora kinoite and steamOS immutability remove. Other have is bad btrfs backup set ups which SteamOS avoids by using ext4.
     
     In terms of no terminal if you use Fedora KDE with an AMD card (SteamOS has no Nvidia support currently) to download steam you just need to click the enable third party repos button which shows up right after an install. Open Discover, type steam and you can install the native fedora package there. You can then fully manage proton via protonupQT.
     
     Tho terminal use is unavoidable on any computer at a certain point. People are just more comfy copying powershell scripts because reasons idk.

     @Inginsub @KaiserKitty @dsm @pettanko fair but it's still a perception issue.
     
     "I'm used to SteamOS so I want to run that on my desktop" is the layman's way of thinking and "Just install Fedora Rolling Atomic Edition" is not of any comfort
