    Microsoft has been trying this for years already. That eventually led to Valve incresing their efforts in the Linux gaming front and releasing the Steam Deck.

      I wonder if Valve would ever get into the Linux Phone market.

      But for the platform itself to be open, I wonder how much would have to be recreated.

        Does anybody actually enjoy gaming on the phone or just do it because there nothing better to do?

        I would perhaps buy a valve phone but I wouldn’t want to game on it which sounds weird.

        Unless it was like a switch and had detachable joycons.

          Oh same here. I’m hopeful that valve brings us a linux phone, not a gaming phone. I’ve never really gotten into gaming on mobile either.

          However, if they DO make a linux phone, I’m sure it will be Steam branded and have all kinds of gaming-specific tweaks.

          But again, to me that just sounds like it will have good hardware specs. So not a problem!
