Even though I don’t have much interest in the Steam Deck itself, seeing the quick progress of Proton and games I regularly play working on the Deck is what got me to seriously consider Linux and finally switch my desktop over.

Been daily driving EndeavourOS for over a month now and no regrets.

The number of vr headsets is actually pretty high. Iirc, the Quest 2 alone has 20m sales

It’s sold a ton but my guess is that the majority of people who bought it are using it as a standalone device

How many of those are connecting it to their PC in order for Steam to survey them?

I really hope they will continue maintaining it and release new versions 🤞

They could enforce SteamOS in Dota2/CSGO esports events. That would be a huge boost

I took the steam deck on my last trip out of country to use on the flight.

There was a monitor, mouse and keyboard at my destination. I worked for several weeks and used the steam deck in desktop mode for me, and used remote desktop on it for work.

So I didn’t have to bring my laptop anymore.

Awesome little device.

The fact that Valve decided to not lock it down and let you use it as a PC is hands down one of the best things about it.
