Given many new handhelds coming on the scene and general disinterest of Microsoft to support the market, do you think SteamOS will take place of default OS the same way Android did on phones some time ago?

“Works” to varying degrees. It usually needs to be tailored to the hardware.
Tailored by the user or the dev? What type of hardware? I have not had to do anything special yet on any of the devices I have installed it on.
By the developers. You can’t just slap it on anything and expect it to work properly. When the Ally was first released there was no sound and no WiFi. You have to use the “experimental” version to get it running kind of okay on there.
Well yeah, the Ally has somewhat “bespoke” hardware. Not to say that the dev didn’t have to do some extra work to even get it working on Aya devices, but at this point in time, I think my statement of “pretty much” anything still stands. Though given the fact that this thread is about the “future” default, maybe I shouldn’t be talking about “this point in time”.
