Is SteamOS a future default for handhelds?

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?

It would be a good thing. Gaming on windows has been a shit experience since everything after windows 7. I don't want to have to manually(or scriptedly) remove candy crush installer icons among other bloat shit every time I install the os just for a basic clean experience that still spies in me.

Strong agree. Have you by chance checked out O&O Shut Up 10? I run it after every install and periodically to keep as much of the tracking disabled as I can. Highly recommended.

I used that 3 windows installations ago but switched to a PowerShell script that is backed up on my friends computer that I set up.
