QuoteDo you plan to release SteamOS as a standalone, general-purpose operating system?

We definitely plan on releasing SteamOS as a separate operating system. We don't have exact timing on that. We're really focused on making sure that Steam Deck is a great experience, and we'll release it for other hardware soon.

I'd laugh if the latest buggy mess to fall out of Bethesda was more stable on Linux than Windows, but I doubt they'll ever release it on Linux natively.

That's just a graphic Liam's put together, I don't think Valve are doing anything to mark the occasion (but then we all know Valve don't mark the passage of time like most other people do... ).

Happy birthday, Steam on Linux!

Over the next 10 years I'm hoping for a 64-bit build with the Gtk2 dependency swapped out for Qt6. Also, they could drop the legacy 'ubuntu12' name from the runtime path.

Quoting: WorMzyI got fed up with the slowness of the new UI. I get that some people want to point and click stuff, but the 'classic' keyboard bindings are sooooo much faster (especially if you've used them for years and it's pretty much muscle memory at this point). I pretty much see Steam DF as a gateway drug to classic.
Doesn't the new "classic" build use the same UI?
Dunno, the latest build is only on Windows right now and I haven't checked it in wine/proton. I'll be very disappointed if it's just the steam version with the updated tileset stripped out.
I quickly tried it on my Windows PC at work. It's indeed the Steam version without the tileset and without the soundtrack.

Boo. How will I play over SSH now?

SurrounDead looks like a mix of DayZ and Project Zomboid

Nice, hopefully them 'supporting' Proton means they'll be testing on it (and not introducing breaking changes or performance regressions in their code), rather than just freeloading on the community+Valve.

Damn fine game, but this reeks of greed. I'm disappointed.
