Steam's built in game streaming previously hasn't had the best quality, leaving many people to use other options like Moonlight/Apollo.

Well I saw some people saying that Steam Remote Play streaming is working a lot better now with the new SteamOS update.

Trying it out myself, it really does seem like it's improved. The whole experience worked very smoothly, and visual quality of the stream is much better than the last time I tried it.

I need to try that again on my desktop, a while ago something broke hard and initially I had to disable AV1 and HEVC, but then it just decided that nah, we don’t do any of that stuff in this house. Then again, not SteamOS so….
