Qualcomm should embrace Linux instead of relying on Microsoft. Valve recognized that in at least 2012. Who knows how long it will take Qualcomm to wake up.
People are starting to leave Windows. Windows 11 on ARM is not going to be a good experience and who will want all the AI crap slowing down a gaming rig? People won’t be able to install Windows 10 on the new ARM devices so the most likely option will be Linux with either SteamOS, Bazzite or something else that can run Steam.
Valve has also been investing in running x86_64 on ARM (can’t remember the name of the project) and even going to use it in the Steam Frame. It will run on Linux, not windows. Ignoring Linux is going to be idiotic if Qualcomm wants to be appealing to gamers.
