I love my deck because
- it can play Steam games fairly well
- it can play emulated game really well
- but most importantly it’s a linux computer, I can browse the web, watch a movie, even be productive on it, and I sometimes don’t even need to plug in a mouse and keyboard or an external screen !
But I was wondering what kind of uses other people have with it, as a non gaming machine?
I sold my laptop and used my Steam Deck as my main PC for a couple of months (till the parts for my new PC arrived). Worked out great. Convinced me to install Arch Linux on my new PC.
The Deck works well as an HTPC too. Works great with Plex, etc.
