Other portable console makers: proprietary shit, locked down OSes, DRM embedded in the device at boot, custom/strange architectural choices, walled gardens

Valve: eh, put a fuckin' normal ass gaming PC in a tiny box with joysticks and call it a day.

Yeah but with Steam Deck you're not forced to use it. It's an unlocked x86-64 compatible handheld PC. Install whatever you want.
