You and me both. Could've gone with ChimeraOS or HoloISO or even just Arch and it would've been better.

The OS for Steam Deck and Manjaro are both forks of Arch, last I checked, no?

Arch requires a keyboard though.

Going with #HoloISO doesn't seem like it would make much sense to me. As far as I understand it is something like an unauthorized derivative of #SteamOS so you'd be putting yourself at Valve's whims without Valve okaying it and no voice at all in the development process.

I like getting the dev team of an open distro involved, I guess #ChimeraOS might have been better if they fit that description as well though.

ChimeraOS is basically a totally hardware-agnostic version of SteamOS, though instead of forking SteamOS it's more like a re-implementation of it from an Arch base.
