Yep, the Steam Deck runs on SteamOS, which is Valve's own custom version of Linux. So, it's pretty much a portable Linux gaming PC that fits in your hands. Plus, it's designed specifically to play games from your Steam library, so you're getting a full Linux-based gaming experience on the go.

Nope, it's not just Linux. It's SteamOS, Valve's own flavor of Linux, specially brewed for gaming. Think of it as Linux with a gaming energy drink.
