While it works Wifi isn’t great for control. You need a stable connection without jitter.

I think it’s a bit self explanatory.

Jeez we are at the fold 5. This shouldn’t make me feel old but here I am, feeling old.

Does it cook pizza?

I’m was talking about game stability. This is a gaming related topic right? Linux is stable but games had some issues.

Truthfully nothing major that stopped me from playing but I had to mess with proton in steam from time to time. Most recently the Last of Us crashes on start, not sure why it was fine previously. Also, there were some games anti cheat did not work and I needed to play in Windows.

Also, I have consistently had issues streaming to my steam Deck. Windows isn’t perfect either but it’s more likely to work the with windows. Sure maybe it’s my Nvidia GPU, but saying switch to amd does make my setup more stable.

It’s still coming, I have tried to switch using my desktop but still have. Needed to swap back to windows for stability.

This is the big issue I have with with “USB C”. USB c is just the connector which can be used for so many things. What actual is supported depends on things you can’t see, like the cable construction or what the device supports.

How are you playing FTL on the deck? Are you using the track pads or a custom controller setup? I struggled to find an easy way to play with the controller.

OLED has black thumb sticks.

Yeah I would guess they just don’t care. I have a nice PC but still found myself playing baldur’s gate on it for a while due to it being in my hands and my ass being on the couch.

It’s just not that easy for a majority of people. It still takes some work and knowledge to do just about everything. From picking an distro, installing it and then running different programs. And games are far from perfect.

I think their age is also an advantage on the Deck. Since the requirements are lower they run better then new AAA games.

How does not one bring up jellyfin? Plex but foss.
