If you own a Steam Deck (either OLED or LCD) or have used one in the past, what are your thoughts? Did you find it easy to use? What is your opinion on the “Desktop mode” with KDE? Do you think it helps or hurts Linux adoption? What are your opinions on Steam as a whole and Valve’s business practices beyond the technical stuff like Proton.

    I got it to mainly support linux development but its also just very good as a console. It feels more purposefully designed than the handhelds with windows slapped on them. I hate windows normally i don’t want to deal with it on a handheld.

    So far I think its really opening people up to linux. My brother seems to have an easy enough time using it and he’s not very tech savy
