18 months ago I tried to roll my own SteamBox. Games launched from Steam worked great. Everything launched from other launchers was mixed, but wouldn't launch from Steam...generally speaking. I switched back to Windows and removed the login because I wanted a console-like experience.

I wish Valve would launch an updated SteamOS.

You can configure your OS to boot directly into Steam Big Picture mode, then add lutris/heroic as non steam games.

I did that, except I couldn't get Lutris or Heroic to work. Also tried several distros and delving into repositories... several weeks and I just couped get it to work. Ironically, W11 does exactly what I wanted, even with uac.
