SteamOS is a spin off Arch aimed very specifically at the steam deck and nothing else. The desktop is nice but incomplete; try setting up a fully working japanese input method for example; or a full, modern gcc compiler chain.

In some future they may make a distro release aimed at a wider range of hardware. But until then it's not a general purpose desktop OS and it's doing them a disservice trying to pretend it is.

Unless you specifically want to tinker with the system you probably want to stick with SteamOS.

I see the screenshot from the Mastodon mobile web client.

Edit: of course I do. It's the other way around that doesn't seem to work.

Ubuntu is an excellent introduction to Linux I think. Also used a lot by experienced users that no longer want to spend much time keeping their desktop running.
