How does OS naming matter at all? Why is SteamOS not a Linux but OpenSUSE, Arch, Debian, Ubuntu, etc. are? SteamOS is literally based on Arch. Can't get much more Linux than that.

The way she and her gf handle themselves on stream and with technical stuff neither them nor their family and friends know very much. They actually said in this stream that they have to explain to family and friends what streaming is.

Getting sent Elgato gear and taking very long to set that and OBS up on her MacBook is a pretty good indicator that they don't have anyone with the technical knowledge in the vicinity.

No, I don't "know" what OS she's running but I can make a very educated guess that she keeps her stuff in their default state. And nothing has to do with her being young, female or an actress. She is actually the technically more capable and interested one in her relationship.
