Their CEO is also Kirt McMaster, a name some might recognise from Cyanogen.

Watch out folks, he’s gonna fuck this one up too.

This sounds interesting, but fuck off with this nonsense. There is nothing “locked down” in SteamOS.

That’s also kinda weird to claim that given how many Valve components they’ll inevitably have to use like Proton, probably Gamescope too. If it’s an AMD chip, they benefit from Valve’s mesa patches and the ACO shader compiler. HDR? Big Valve involvement.
