This is definately going to cut into virtual desktops bottom line
I'd like to see a performance comparison, steam link from my bedroom PC to my phone or living room on the same local network was already super buggy and had ridiculous latency for me.
So if virtual desktop can keep an edge on performance, they'll make it just yet. They recently implemented their own OpenXR, which is great for game dev, I can test my VR games just by launching them with the headset on, no need to go through steam or oculus.
I doubt steam link will be able to compete with that(we're talking 0 extra seconds to run a test for my games, where as steam VR always needs to boot up and adds layers of time to my iterations) , so VD might have a market they can capitalize on if they need to target a niche.
Depends on how good it is. I still people pushing others toward VD even though Meta has their own now.
