But isn't the steam deck Arch as well? So I wonder if there's still a difference where they support just the deck specific specs...
But if it's a Linux native build, and the deck is arch, it would stand to reason that you could at least get the build on arch. Maybe they're doing a check against the uname or something to verify what you're running.
