Excluding adding an external keyboard and mouse, what quality of life changes can be made to the deck to make keyboard and mouse work less terrible?

    That’s a toggle under keyboard settings. With the toggle off (which is default behavior I think) the left trigger is shift and the right trigger is enter.

        Typing my password was what prompted me to ask the question. Looking at my 20 character random password (I don’t have a manager installed on the deck) I decided staring blankly out the window for two hours was preferable to attempting to enter the characters - blindly, since the password box was unmodifyingly hidden behind the pop-up keyboard - and hoping I got them all correct and every keypress actually registered, and only registered once.

          Protip: get KDE connect, connect your phone and deck and then use KDE connect to paste passwords from your phones password manager

          edit: deck has kde connect preinstalled but I think you need to connect your phone in desktop mode.

          you can also then use your phones keyboard to type or use the phone as a touchpad
