I'd prefer Manjaro over Microsoft anydays.

However I have quit Microsoft long before Manjaro came into existence.

I expect them to try to sweeten the deal for getting everything from the Microsoft Store with things like their ActiBlizzard library, Game Pass, and mobile integration - after all, you've already got a Microsoft account, and you're already launching your Steam games from the Microsoft Store app, right

This is indeed the spiciest detail and one which Valve will watch very closely!
This IS why Valve supports Linux in the first place.

No 'XYZ' destroyer has done any destroying yet. Ever...

Remember when 'XYZ' was the iPod, the iPhone etc.

I'll believe it when I see it. (Honestly, those press outlets writing these headline don't have any idea.)

If you want to analyze:

the only significant drawback of the Steamdeck: "no 100% windows games compatibility" hasn't hurt it. And this is the only thing where that new competition is a "bit" better. However it is only a "bit" better. Let's see how large that "bit" is. If history has taught us, it requires to be quite a large "bit" - and I'd wager this one is not large enough.

Compare for example Microsoft's foray to enter the mobile phone space. Their offer seemed to be the "bit" better than Android. It failed spectacularly. And it is not that they didn't try.

If you want to challenge something, you have to be "far" better, not a "bit". (And they never have been "far" better.)

Repeat after me: "DRM is bad for the customer"

It is not that we are starved for good games...

Let's see if Microsoft manages to turn them around (and in line).
(Also let's also hope it is not just a ruse by Zotac to get better Microsoft conditions.)

However I am reluctantly optimistic.
