I thought there wouldn't be any doubt it was satire.

Arguing virtues of open source as a better way of running proprietary software is weird. Calling people playing on consoles not normal is really deranged and is likely a product of a 13 year old or someone with 13 year old mentality.

It's rather debatable if buying Steam Deck is easier than going to a regular store and buying Xbox either outright or in installments with Game Pass too.
