I saw that Steam is already on version 3.6 in the preview/beta channel, what features does 3.6 have that 3.5 doesn’t? Can’t find any info on what 3.6 adds.

Main channel is a true rolling release so it’s a work-in-progress. Basically, everything that happens in Main will eventually become SteamOS 3.6.
Once it hits Preview, that’s when you reach the “hey, this is what we’ve got so far for SteamOS 3.6”.
Beta is the point where Valve is basically saying “Ok, this is SteamOS 3.6 and now we’re going to iron out all the bugs and make sure it’s ready for everyone”.
And finally, Stable, where all the i’s are theoretically dotted and the t’s are theoretically crossed.
Long story short, until 3.6 hits the Preview channel, there really is no SteamOS 3.6. The versioning on the Main channel is basically there as a checkpoint to mark where new feature development on 3.5 ended and where 3.6 begins.
