I have to imagine the whitelisting to specifically steam deck is only going to get worse because publishers only know how to publish to console and windows. they’ll fingerprint the hardware and move on
If you look at the Steam Hardware Survey itself, Steam Deck makes up less than a third. Though there will surely be a few whacko’s that do it anyway.
Ive already seen it. I forget the game but there was a recent one that had a steam deck allow profile but blocked Linux outright.
It did that because they were worried about people circumventing the cosmetic microtransactions. In essence they blocked Linux for DRM purposes.
The only way this is going to significantly shift is OEM-installed distros like SteamOS.
