So if this statement is true, an OS wouldn’t be a limitation.
Of course tech is better, that’s why you can’t play on it? Do you need this pointed out?

I’m not the OP, but the original statement wasn’t that you can run on all hardware—but rather the hardware of your choice.
There are many, many different PC models available, with a variety of form factors, with vastly different components. And you can choose whatever gives you value.
Nobody is claiming that you should run Black Myth Wukong on an old IBM Aptiva except you.

Right, but it’s not freedom, when it doesn’t run on everything. You need to keep your system updated to play modern games.
With a switch, any game released, you know will play.
So yes it’s MORE exclusive in some situations.
Where? Don’t put words in peoples mouth if you want to have a civil discourse, but of course with this being your post, we know your bias already.

Bingo. Nintendo and all game consoles are all walled gardens, but not necessarily a bad thing in this case. The Steam Deck is more of handheld PC that can pretty much run anything when in Desktop Mode. They’re two completely different beasts.

I never claimed that. I said it was a limitation. Which it is. It limits its capability.
