You can't cause SteamOS is Linux. You can install Windows on the device but I don't recommend it.

Darn, thanks for the response

No problem. :)
I know it's not the best solutions, but you should be able to use both Google Meetups and Discord in their web based forms through Steam OS within games.

This may cause a performance hit if works, but this should at least be theoretically possible

Xbox should release a web app like all normal services.

I play on linux and for xbox friends I use my app on my phone. Simple as that.

Have nice time! :spycon:

Yes this is what I have been doing too but it's cooler and more convenient with one device.

Yes I agree, I was thinking the same thing

I think you'd need to define what you mean by "normal services". Releasing a communication platform to PC has big repercussions for a service because it can be used in ways that were not initially intended, including the use of browser tools for spamming/scamming users. That aside, it just introduces additional test cases that a QA team would have to budget for... Not impossible, but very very unlikely.
