        launch tweaks, protonup-qt, decky plugins, the list goes on. there’s a number of things you need to understand before you can have a truely seamless experience on steamos in the same way you can on a bespoke console.

          Who told you that? You don’t need any of that. All you do is log in and click play.

            late reply but, i bought a deck on launch! stuff has gotten a lot easier, but you still need tweaks to get full performance.

            at the very least you need to know how to use launch options and navigate protondb, which i have specifically been told is a bridge too far for some folks.

            i think within the decade it may very well be truely plug and play. valve is doing some serious heavy lifting for gaming on linux.

              You absolutely do not need to do any of that. I own a Deck and a dedicated desktop machine with Bazzite. I’ve never used any of those applications.
