GeForce NOW announces support for Steam Deck, Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest and Pico mixed-reality devices; plus 'DOOM: The Dark Ages' and 'Avowed' are coming to the cloud.
I mean, based on the last time I talked to Nvidia support about how why the app didn’t support various platforms, it just means they will now support that specific distro. You’re still going to be SOL if you have questions or issues on any other.
Official support for any distro is not that important, imo. If they actually deliver a native GeForce NOW app for SteamOS, it’ll likely work on other distros too (unless Nvidia actively blocks them/only supports Steam Deck controls specifically).
Hopefully they’ll release the app on Steam directly, or better yet, to flathub. If they only release a script to install it specifically on the Steam Deck, like the beta script they currently have, I’ll be disappointed.
Though I agree, I think my issue previously was that they were specifically blocking it on non whitelisted platforms. I’ll see if I can find the thread.
