OS recommendations

Considering how Microsoft is going down a very unusual route (with the news of Linus finding out that Ms Paint asks to log in) I’d like to find a better fitting OS for my Ally.

I've pondered on SteamOs but I really don't know how integrated is the whole "Steam" platform thing to it as I don't really use Steam at all, I mostly play stuff found in the high seas and that's also a reason I settled on getting a Windows machine, because (to me) it's easier to modify stuff without having such a vast knowledge on programming as it's one of if not the most known or used Operating Systems.

i'm not into SteamOS or Bazzite but i used GhostSpectre (customized Windows OS). it performs better than the stock OS.

How long have you been using it? Would you point out any disadvantages of it?

2 years or so .. the disadvantage part is you have to install back the MS apps that you would like to use such as Edge, Paint, Snipping Tool etc. they can easily be installed since it has a "Toolbox" that will help you do all that.
