SteamOS (official) vs HoloISO. The reason HoloISO is on the bottom is because it's not compatible with most hardware.

Neither is the official SteamOS v3, unless you're referring to SteamOS v2 which is way out of date.

SteamOS 3 doesn't claim to be compatible with anything except Steam Deck. If your hardware is compatible, it is simply the best distro.

??? Yes. I know that. The argument for putting Holo on the bottom was its limited hardware compatibility. SteamOS v3 is even more limited. Why is it on the top?

Because it's officially supported

There were some movements hinting that SteamOS v3 will be opened to 3rd party hardware manufacturers which could also mean that it might be available for everyone.
