I’m really excited by this. I sold my nintendo switch a while ago and I miss handheld gaming while going on trips. and also the fact that alot of games will probably be ported to linux because of this. what do you all think?

Proton/Wine works so well these days that you can play basically any Windows single-player game on Linux. The problem is really only on those few multiplayer games that deploy super invasive anti-cheat root-kits.
Maybe this new Steam console will result in some native ports of such multi-player games, but the form factor makes this less likely as few people play such multi-player games on hand-held consoles.
People play PUBG, Fortnite, Dead By Daylight and others on mobile (Android) and I’d argue a Switch-like console would be better suited for such kind of games.
