- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Isn't that what the Steam Link tried to do?
It is, but Steam has a habit of iterating, maybe we’ll see an updated Steam Link- like device in the future?
They abandoned it because they could just build it into TVs.
They didn't abandon it, they opened it up to anything running at least Andriod 8.0 or newer. So basically every Andriod device made since 2015 can run Steam Link, maybe not at a quality seen as appropriate but it'll run.
I'm talking about the hardware.
They stopped making the hardware because they didn't need a dedicated device any more.
