Well, I use Arch, the one that Steam OS Is based on, and I have had problems, counted on one hand, but some are important, like a version of the AMD drivers not working properly after an update and people just saying that they are not good, either way steam should test against it before an update, or having problems with my ps5 controller in Linux native games when it works fine trough proton (this has nothing to do with the OS), something that I informed to the steam repo but there is no solution, if it works trough proton it should work in native, this one is important because of the Deck.
The point is that every OS will have problems, but yeah, I wouldn’t touch a system that uses PPA for gaming, they have failed too many times for me, specially when using a Nvidia card (since Nvidia forces the use of additional PPA)
