I mean, exactly how invasive are default operating systems? (Like Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Android, iOS) Do they log your keystrokes, log passwords, capture screen, upload your photos, videos, or audio? (Assuming you aren’t a target of government) Is it even possible for the average person who doesn’t feel comfortable messing with installing operating systems to have any privacy?
It kind of is when the machine ships with windows or macos
That’s a way to look at it but not generally accepted at least for PC.
If the SteamDeck ships with SteamOS then you put Windows on it, does that make Windows a custom OS everywhere?
Nope. Just on steam deck.
