Can we stop with the DE wars please? Everyone already knows that KDE and Qt are better. It's used in the Steam Deck (a new portable by Valve).

I really just assumed it was still ubuntu base, but then I read on and Steam Deck b liek, "I use arch, BTW"
Very pleasantly surprised to see they rebased on arch for this. It makes so much sense, and will ease the hardware and the desktop environment for them, least from my experience, and make it a lot more interesting for anyone who does get curious and starts playing around. I expect this will get a lot of windows kids poking around the linux ecosystem

Impossible. For gaming. Where people use 21:9 or worse. And this thing is 16:10.
And I can't get 16:10 monitors for work.
The world is broken.
(but nice device, Valve!)

All I can say is that they must have gotten pre-orders for a massive amount, I wanted to preorder and the Steam site/purchase site was unresponsive the entire time due to being overloaded from demand. I am happy I managed to get one but so far the signs are the opposite, i.e. its quite successful.
