Perhaps you moved from Europe to the States in the interim like I did.
Edit to add: sorry if this came off as snarky, was not my intention. Just wanted to point out that it’s not always so clear-cut. I created my Reddit account in 2008 when I lived in the Netherlands. Then I moved to the US in 2016 and became a citizen in 2019.
I just watched this YouTube video last night of someone setting up Bazzite on a mini pc to create a sort of Steam Machine, might be nice to check out. https://youtu.be/f45hDPOrzFI
