Yup, that’s awesome. The first time I played it, I was using a steam deck as a daily driver while waiting for a new laptop to ship. Grabbed the app image and it just worked!

Tbf, I didn’t know about the steam release. But yeah it’s also open source.

I know you requested steam, but beyond all reason is legitimately good and free. Runs on all major OS’s, has a good user base and excellent development.

Beyondallreason.info I think

I didn’t realize pip and venv didn’t work… that’s a pretty big deal breaker for a lot of people, myself included.

So far I love it. I bought it brand new from Lenovo and you could pick from I think 3 or 4 distros. I picked fedora, which it came with 38. When I first booted up it had a bios update which honestly surprised me that they would bother. Then upgraded to 40 through the fedora upgrade path. All painless.

I was fully prepared to make a windows live USB just to flash the bios/firmware.

I just bought a Thinkpad x1 carbon preloaded with Fedora and it’s pretty fantastic.

I had one quite some time ago so my memory is probably not perfect here. it was almost good enough for most things. I feel like there was an issue where it only had 32bit support for some stuff, but this was years ago.

I do remember it had decent support for Ubuntu out of the box.

It had a ton of bios updates when it first came out, so step one is I’d go make sure you’ve got at least a recent version.
