Cool change.
On the topic of Flatpak games… I hope Valve takes over the flatpak/Flathub version of Steam. Right now it’s unofficial.
Valve only officially supports the .deb package on the most recent Ubuntu LTS, and their official SteamOS version.
Despite this, Canonical defaults to the unofficial Snaps version - in the past when this caused issues, Valve said that people should use the Flathub version - which they don’t actually support!
Come on, Valve. You know it makes sense. You clearly like Flatpaks if you’re telling people to use them and preinstalling them on the Deck. Make it official!
A PS5 Pro is far more powerful than the average gaming PC.
And I don’t know why you think an APU can’t achieve good performance. The PS5 Pro manages it despite being a small die size and an old CPU architecture.
You talk of the need to make it manufacturable cheaply - that’s what APUs are good at. Having it across several chips that need more expensive board layouts, far more memory, and more advanced cooling adds cost.
