Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
I think other manufacturers aren't using SteamOS for 2 main reasons:
1: They get to brag about universal compatibility, even if that's not a huge gap anymore
2: They aren't dependent on a direct competitor for their software
Except Valve isn't a competitor to any of these hardware manufacturers if they also have SteamOS.
